I’ve had like seven colonoscopies, you aren’t going to the game.

Put it on the TV and be close to a restroom.

If you can avoid taking SuPrep do so. If you can find Miralax and mix it with Gatorade you’ll have a much better experience taste wise.

Bro I would just skip the game, your body and health is way more important than seeing a basketball game in person, especially one you can just watch on tv. 

Love a literal shit post

You will be spending all game on that toilet. By the times you get back to your seat, you need to make another trip. Over and over and over again.

The drink they give you is so potent that you’ll just have to bring a laptop with you in the bathroom to watch it.

Trust me, your health is important too. Stay home.

You will be shitting nonstop, full stop. The prep drink is some of the most vile shit you’ll ever experience imo.

You will be shitting uncontrollably dawg

Depends

You will - not probably, not possibly, WILL - be needing a toilet every 5 to 15 minutes. Sell the tickets, have your phone and a charger battery ready, watch the game in between evacuations. Your body will not give you a choice.

Yeah dawg it’s been covered pretty well already but once you drink the colonoscopy prep, it’s not like you’ll be able to feel the shit coming, get up from your seat, walk to the nearest bathroom in the arena, and have a nice shit. You’ll be sitting in the seat watching the game, you’ll get 0.5s of an inkling of “huh kind of feels like a minor stomach rumble, I wonder if that’s the prep working” and then you will instantaneously piss buckets of water from your asshole with zero control over your sphincter. It will be literal buckets spraying out of your bootyhole, you will be astounded that your body is even capable of such a thing. It’s truly a marvel of biology.

So, yes please go to the game so we can see some all-time highlight reels of you shitting in the arena

Why not both? Go to the game, and take the prep at the same time? You may become more famous than the game and the players.

just get the colonoscopy 😭

I haven’t thought the prep was bad (better than I was expecting), esp the frequency of outbursts. But I would never want to be more than 20 feet from guaranteed unoccupied restroom during it….

Also I have no idea if depends can handle that load in case you’re wondering.

Have you ever done the prep before dude? I have, and personally you could not pay me to leave the direct vicinity of my home bathroom during that time. You can watch the game on TV.

no you definitely cannot go to the game. like you will literally just be sitting on the toliet for hours, or walking back and forth over and over take your choice, peeing out of your butt. There’s just not a more pleasant way to say it than that.. I’ve done it twice, it’s not THAT bad tbh but you definitely can’t go out and do stuff.

Doctor here…definitely should not take the prep while at the game. However, the exact timing of the prep is not what’s important. What matters is that your stool is as clear as possible prior to the procedure. So you could probably start the prep when you get back from the game, as long as you are able to drink it all and deal with the consequences and lack of sleep overnight.

Non ethical tip but will work: Just say you got Covid, they’ll reschedule

You make every game, they call you a super fan. You crap yourself at one game, what meme are they going to turn you into?

Am a nurse who’s helped prep 100s of people. You can’t go to the game and prep. It’s not physically possibly. You’ll thank me for this comment in a few days. Good luck.

Like everyone else said. It’s an all nighter on the pot. And don’t let it fool you. If it says Go Lightly. It ain’t lightly. And if you think it isn’t working. Trust me, it’ll show up fast and brutal. Make you a spot near the bathroom and have a laptop or tablet or something mobile so you don’t have to travel too far to the toilet. And the next day, plan on sleep and farting. Because that is what your doing.

Dude. I’ve had two colonoscopies. You will LITERALLY be pissing out of your asshole. Like a stream of liquid at Mach 1, on and off for a day.

It’s also extremely painful especially if you have hemmaroids. Do not attend anything except for your bathroom Brodie 😭

You might be the only human that has cared about the play in since 2021

If you’re going to do the colonoscopy prep, stay at home. No point going to the game because you’ll be on the toilet most of the time.

Brother, do not leave your house, you’re going to be glued to your toilet lol, I’m not sure you even know what you’re in for yet.

Dude, when you see how this plays out you will thank us for saying miss the game. It’s a… lot lol. 

Gastroenterologist here - do clear liquid diet all day (like instructed). Then just start your prep when you get home. Take it all and you’ll be clean by the morning. Just don’t expect to sleep much and make sure you take some dulcolax in the AM hours before the game to get things moving.

Raises hand.

Had a colonoscopy 4 years ago. Stay home. You will regret going to the game.

Bro. Set your pad up for max relaxation to watch and mentally prepare for your anal canal to be penetrated

And, ya know, cuz you’ll be dropping watery shits every 15 mins due to the prep

Trust me once the shit kicks in you will be absolutely miserable

The prep is you shitting every 15 minutes. Do not go to the game unless you want to do all your shitting in the stadium

Look at it this way, if the Hornets win you will get more chances to watch post season basketball.

If they lose, at least you didn’t waste money while shitting your ass in an arena stall.

Good luck to you.

If you want to shit on yourself do the prep and go to the game.

This is what Reddit was made for.

YOLO wear diaper in the game

Hah, if you go and after the laxatives, you’re gonna be on the jumbotron and for baaaaaaad reasons

i was just telling my partner last week about how there is almost nothing worse i’ve been thru re: health stuff than colonoscopy prep. 

after about 2hrs i was literally scream eagle-ing and just stayed in the bathroom the rest of the night. at a certain point, you start to really empathize with the horror ducks go through to make foie gras, as you have to continue forcing it down despite the nearly insurmountable mental aversion to liquid.

i sincerely hope that you do not put yourself through that at a game lmfao.. but if you do, it’ll prob make for one hell of a story someday, at least..godspeed, soldier– see you at Valhalla.

As someone with Crohn’s for 20 years who does a colonoscopy every 3 (and did a whole lot more 20 years ago as they were figuring out what was wrong…)… Don’t go to the game. Watch it at home. Be near the bathroom. Take care of yourself. You are not going to make it back and forth to the arena restroom. And even if you do, by the end of the first quarter you are going to be walking painfully…

I know this person in real life. 100% not a joke. God speed friend

Nah bro ain’t no way 😂. I just had one a month ago. I couldn’t imagine being in public while prepping for it 😂😂😂

I’d sell the tix and pocket the cash while watching from home. If you go you’ll miss half the game anyway. That prep is no joke 😂

100% the dumbest post I’ve seen on this sub and possibly Reddit. You will literally shit your pants if you somehow make it to the arena.

I’ve never done it but from everything I know about it, stay home! Make yourself a little setup in/near the bathroom with things to do/watch/read. And don’t wipe too much

I had one months ago. DO NOT GO TO THE GAME.

Be an adult and watch from the toilet. Getting checked can literally save your life.

I turned 50 2.5 years ago and had a routine colonoscopy. I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon cancer after not having any other symptoms. Listen, I’m a huge Nuggets fan. Please, please put your health first. Best of luck, friend.

If you are doing a full colonoscopy, you’ll be stuck in the bathroom every few minutes. You will shit yourself in the seat at the arena, or miss the game anyways because you’ll be stuck in the washroom. If you’ll miss the game anyways, might as well do it at home where the washroom will be cleaners and more comfortable.

Bro what? The prep will have you on the toilet considerably as it aims to CLEAN your bowels out of fecal material so you can get good images of everything in your plumbing. Some people do well with it, others don’t. If it’s the liquid stuff, it tends to make people pretty nauseous.

You need to basically just have clear liquids the entire day before too so it’s not like you’re gonna go to a game and eat anything good.

If it’s gonna cost you $1k and possibly your own health vs a game of basketball, which would you choose? Charlotte is nice and will definitely have other playoff games, hell they’ll probably have more playoff games this playoffs.

If I was you, I’d just get this scope done properly and then watch my team from home.

You’re not a Hornets fan unless you wear adult diapers

LMAOOOO bro don’t even be 5 feet from your bathroom let alone your home

1 in 2 men whi get colon cancer die. it is the biggest killing cancer under 45. 

got basketball isnt worth it. focus on your health 

I have ulcerative colitis so I have been doing colonoscopy for 25 years. I’ve had about 15 so far. You can make the game. Don’t eat. Don’t start your prep. The SECOND you get home start chugging then he’ll out of the prep. Wake up and early and chug the rest. It’s a waste if you’re not clean. So go hard.

There’s a prep that you don’t need to drink 4 liters of. Can’t remember the name, I’ve done it the last two times with some ducaral or ducacets too. And it works fast and is less nausea inducing

You could just keep drinking clear liquids and start prep when you get home. You won’t sleep much but would work if you have regular bowel movements. Some people have a harder time getting cleaned out if they suffer from constipation.

Do not under any circumstances attempt colonoscopy prep in a public place.
