[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to you get them every two years due to a genetic mutation that greatly increases my risk for colon cancer. The Sutabs are a huge improvement over liquid prep. I get a prescription for Zofran so I don’t get nausea. I go to Capital Digestive Care and they allow you to eat low residue foods until noon the day before the procedure. I have had a couple bad experiences, however. I get dehydrated and it’s very difficult to get an IV started. During my last colonoscopy, they turned off the anesthesia too soon and[b] I woke up during the last few minutes, which was quite unpleasant.[/b][/quote] I also went to Capital Digestive Care (K Street) and also woke up during the procedure. I won't be going back there. It was my second colonoscopy. The first one (not at CDC) was an amazing nap![/quote]
