Moviprep

Been drinking this awful stuff since 5pm and had no movement... Supposed to be having a colonoscopy tomorrow... Has it not worked for anyone else??

hi again, bowel prep has never worked for me, but for most people it works by the morning or the middle of the night! just try and keep drinking it and drink the one in the morning too (if thats what your instructions are). if it doesnt work, the doctor will still try to gain entry but they might just give you a different prep and reschedule.

Does it hurt if they try even though I've not been? And I've not been for about a week as I struggle anyway so I know I need to. They won't give me an enema will they? 

I think the tablets will work better. Had to drink both my litres tonight

it hurts no more but sometimes they will have to stop because they cannot see. on my third colonoscopy i ended up taking dulcolax because like you the prep wasnt working, however i ended up very dehydrated so i would say wait and ask for a different prep if they cant do the procedure today, good luck!

Yes that happened to me as well, you also have to drink a lot of fluid, How did you get on ?

[ChloeWilson in reply to mal1960]

Yeah I did everything by the book but it still didn't work and so had to reschedule X
