Anyone have a positive Cologuard test?

I’ve never had the experience of Cologuard. I had a rare malignant GIST at 33 and have been having yearly colonoscopy and endoscopy for the past 19 years.
Honestly. The prep isn’t bad. There are also ways to make it very much easier to get a clean prep.
First, 3-5 before the prep day, start eating a low residue diet, this means white bread, white rice, pasta, chicken breast, apple sauce etc. when prep day rolls round it makes it easier to eliminate everything.
So far the very best prep I’ve had is CLENPIQ so ask for that. It’s just 2 small bottles and they taste fine.
The next game changer, for me anyway is that you can eat gummy candy as long as it’s not the red blue or purple ones. This helps so much with “mouth feel” and satisfaction, I’ve never really done jello, I just stick with bone broth to fill me up.
I hope these tips help.
The test itself is a piece of cake and literally lifesaving.
I wish you a positive experience.

Yes I will be on to the low residue diet - my normal diet is along those lines - and I will be asking for the CLENPIQ. Thanks.
