[quote=Anonymous]Sorry, you do have to drink all of it. I'm smaller than you and have done this a dozen times and have asked that question every time! Believe me, you want to drink it all so that the doc can see clearly, or you'll have to do it all over again! BTW, you are asking advice of your gastroenterologist, not a urologist, right? Yes, you will spend the night in the bathroom, so collect a bunch of trashy magazines, some extra soft toilet paper, and your ipod. It's not fun, but it's tolerable for one night. Some of the prep solutions taste pretty foul. If you have to use one of them, try using a straw and rinsing your mouth with water afterward. Many doctors these days will give you a large container of laxative powder to mix with a super large bottle of Gatorade instead, and that is a huge improvement. Inquire about this. All in all, I bet it's not as bad as you're expecting. Follow the instructions to a T, though. Good luck! [/quote]
