Moviprep bowel prep help, colonoscopy in the morning

Hello, I am so behind on the schedule for taking each glass of the movi prep because I am up and down to the loo so much, every few mins, I still have not finished my first liter let alone the 2nd liter, I am really struggling with it. I was supposed to start between 5-6, I finished my 1st glass by 6.45 and still have approx a quarter of the 1st liter to drink. I have to be in the hospital by 8.30 am. Is it a problem if i am behind on the times on the instructions?

Any help would be great

Thank you

    I had to have one of those earlier this year and the drink was awful,  I added juice, drank thru a straw and still couldn't manage to drink it all , I worried because I didn't poop much either and was still pooping in the morning , despite not being able to drink it all, they managed to see inside pretty well, they did have to use water to wash some particals away but that was all , I also feared I'd have an accident but didn't. 

     

    Good luck
