Hi @ronromo 😊
Thanks so much for jumping into the conversation! I didn't realize there may be an option to fast and take a laxative. (But TWO days of fasting sounds pretty unpleasant too). Both options are pretty terrible, but I think not eating and taking a laxative sounds a smidge better to me than drinking a "gallon of OMG". I will discuss the fasting possibility with my gastro doc to see if it's something I can do. Thank you so much for letting me know. Are you a liver or kidney transplant? Congrats on your 10 year anniversary...that's awesome! Is your UC under control with medication or do you still have symptoms?
Thanks again for sharing your experience with me!

My UC hasn’t been to bad but anytime I have to go I need to do it quickly. For the two days of fasting, you can have clear juices, clear broth, popsicles, etc. (but nothing red or purple).
