[quote=Anonymous]I wanted to thank people for all the suggestions. I did not get a migraine! When I started getting hungry I drank white cranberry juice, and I think it had enough sugar to prevent the headache. I also made sure to drink my normal amount of coffee, just black. I followed the low fiber diet the week before. I also take a magnesium pill daily in normal circumstances which meant I wasn’t constipated or full going into the prep. I used the clear Glacier Cherry Gatorade for my split Gatorade/Miralax prep. I also found some coconut flavored protein water, but I ended up not needing it. One thing I learned is that I should have had lots more liquid beyond the prep Gatorade and the half a bottle of juice. Although I felt fine, I was pretty dehydrated, which made finding a vein difficult. My colonoscopy was totally fine even though it was my first at age 55. I really encourage everyone to do it! Thanks so much for the tips![/quote]
