Colon cleansing for colonoscopy

Hello everyone! I'm up late tonight because of the wonderful laxatives that I had to take for my colonoscopy and upper endoscopy for tomorrow. I hate doing the prep. I apologize-I'm hungry,exhausted and bored. I'm not too pleased that my choice for a seat is the toilet tonight=). My doctor is just doing routine testing to rule out anything wrong. He is taking all measures before having an ERCP done on me. He suspects that I might have a Sphincter of Oddi dysfunction. So if everything goes well tomorrow, I think I am heading to Indianopolis. Apparently they are the ERCP U.S. headquarters. Well, I hope everyone is doing well. Take care, Tiffany

Hello! I am very happy to report that everything went great. My esophogus, stomach, duodenum, and colon are working great. My doctor is going to see how the medication he prescribed be last week (Levsin) for biliary colic is working and I have to see him in a month. He also is rechecking my liver enzymes. Apparently when my liver enzymes spike, that is when I go to Indianopolis for the ERCP to see how my sphincter of oddi is. I live in Omaha, Ne. So it really isn't that far from Indiana. I hope everyone is doing great! Take care- Tiffany
