NECESSITY for Colonoscopy Prep
I discovered this cleansing lotion when I had my first colonoscopy. I had been warned that the prep was the worst part. And my mom warned me to lay in a supply of this lotion when tidying up after the prep stuff did its thing. I was skeptical. Lotion? For my BUM?! Turns out, that's a very definite YES.<br /><br />If you've had a colonoscopy, you know that after you drink that concoction of vileness that they call the "prep drink," you're going to poop in much the same way that Vesuvius erupts. Trip after trip to the loo, right? Right. Oh, you thought you were done and could have a little lie-down to recover? Haha. NOPE! Why don't you just bring in War and Peace and sit here the rest of the day?<br /><br />So after a few trips to the throne room, your bum feels a bit sore. Even the softest toilet tissue feels like 80-grit sandpaper rasping all the skin off your most delicate bits. And you can't stop going to the loo, because that death-potion you had to drink is ripping through you like a wildfire through a summer-dry grassland. In fact, your bum feels like it might BE on fire.<br /><br />That's where this lotion stuff comes in. After gently patting the worst of the debris off your bum, you take a fresh piece of toilet roll and put a bit of this stuff on it. Use that to clean up the rest of you. The relief is instant, like a cup of ice-water after a mid-day hike through Death Valley in mid-August. And it does seem to make the cleanup more effective.<br /><br />I imagine people with chronic digestive issues would also find this useful, and I know that on days when my "girl thing" is happening, it's a relief to clean up using this product. But if you're slated for a colonoscopy, you should most definitely lay in a supply of this stuff. You're gonna need it!
