Guys, for colonoscopy screening, anyone got any experience going for it?

I read that the day before colonoscopy will be given laxative to clear out everything. But is it mean we must admitted in hospital the day before screening? Thanks!

No need for admission. My mom was given the bowel cleansing medication to be taken at home in the evening and next morning before the colonoscopy screening

Just to share my case, is half day admit. Early in the morning go hospital, then everything done can go back after lunch time.

You will be given laxative to take at home and start taking approx 12 hours before your procedure(typically in the morning). Be prepared to spend most of your time on the toilet upon the laxative . You will need to be passing out clear water as a sign your bowels are clean .

yes i did mine in 2017.... drink the laxative at home.. my appt is 9am so i wake up 4am drink that laxative then go toilet immediately few times until you pass out water only.... then get ready by 730am head to hospital by 830am register and wait for my turn.... basically the tiring part is going to toilet few times la in the morning but it will be over in a couple of hours... during the procedure i dont feel anything when they do the colonscopy and endoscopy ( i do both).... looks like only last less than 30 mins then push me out to rest... they sedate me half body numb.... my wife is with me that time after 30mins i can wake up and walk already.... get result and go home...
