I have had several colonoscopies over the years and will be having a further one on 4th June.

The bowel needs to clean to ensure a thorough examination is possible.  This entails a light diet for a couple of days before.  Followed by taking a liquid prep during the 36 hours prior to the procedure. Powder, mixed in water which means frequent visits to the bathroom.  The colonoscopy is performed by passing a flexiscope via the anus which has a mico camera attached.  Full explanation of the prep, diet and procedure will be sent to you from the hospital you attend.
