bowel preparation
"I am over 60 and had my first ever flexible sigmoidoscopy today after using the Moviprep 1 ltr dose evening, 2nd 1 ltr dose following day.  It did its job to clean the bowel for effective examination.  I found it very sickly sweet and it's maybe like that to cater for a society majority bingeing on sweet foods and drinks, though not me and I try to avoid aspartame too.  I am not a great drinker of liquids so I found it awkward to twice drink 1 litre of soupy syrup and half litre of other liquid in 2 hours, but it was necessary so I did it, and I didn't want to do a second prep if this one failed to do its job."
