I, too, had same reaction twice to the prep. As a result, am way overdue for Colonoscopy and refuse to go through that again.
Am 80 yrs. old.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I am 75 years old and have taken the move of not having another Colonoscopy and/or Prep ever again. I have enough other issues to worry about. I now feel like I have done the right thing. The Prep is very bad!

I am 75 years old and have always had colonoscopies every five years, give or take. The Prep is the worst thing I have ever endured and I have now decided I will not be having another Prep in my life time. I have had my fair share.
