Comment:
Following doctor's instructions exactly for 1st colonoscopy on Tuesday. I drank entire bottle of CVS brand (lemon) at 5pm today, followed by 2 8 oz glasses of water. I actually liked the taste, which was a pleasant surprise- kind of like a lemon fizzie drink from my childhood. Now 1120pm (over 6 hours!) & no movement yet- maybe I'm just slow.... Hope CVS brand was decent quality!
