I just had my colonscopy on Wed. I always did the terrible drink with mirolax and ducolax pills. My one question has anyone experienced stomach discomfort for a few days? I do have gastritis and thought the prep might have caused this discomfort. Other then this l have no other issues. I've already went to the bathroom with no problem. No pain or blood.

Hi, @cookiepic - I've had several colonoscopies and endoscopies with the same necessary prep. Each time I've had a bit churny gut for a couple of days.

Have you had another colonoscopy with a different prep, cookiepic? If so, which prep was best for you in terms of how your stomach felt afterward?

This last time, I felt particularly bloated after the prep and it lasted for over 48 hours. I did not go to the bathroom till past 72 hours after the colonoscopy. This last aspect could be due to my having a LAR.
