well i would suggest you simply eat a normal diet and follow the prep instructions to the letter. fasting before a colonoscopy may sound like a good idea but could actually backfire. abstaining from food or drink for 48 hours can have a profound effect on the digestive system and cause the prep solution(s) not to work correctly. so again my advice is to follow the written instructions you received. these instructions have helped thousands of patients achieve a good clean-out prior to colonoscopy and with luck they'll work for you too. here's hoping things go better this time around!
will have a colonoscopy next week what do you suggest i eat this week before the test. in the past i have fasted 2 days and still failed to get "good clean out". is there a suggested diet i should follow this week before i go to clear liquids only for the 2 days before the test
