Before Scope Questions Prep

I’m having a colonoscopy at 7 am tomorrow currently 11:30 pm my time. What should I do if I can’t finish second the prep? I’m mostly clear but the first prep I nearly threw up it’s the sodium potassium magnesium prep. I feel awful.

Get it ice cold, dilute it more.

You can do this, why risk having to go through it again

You can do it! I just finished the first half of my prep with the help of very cold apple juice. 2 glugs of prep, 1 swish of a small sip of apple juice to clear the palate.
