I have a scope wednesday and i'm just curious how that goes with a stoma? Also did you have to do all the prep?

BTW, I'm no stranger to scopes this is my second one this year but the first since surgery.  Crossing my fingers that the Stelara is working.

Last scope I had I didn’t have to do the prep, I couldn’t have solid food for 24 hours beforehand and nothing at all after midnight the day of the scope. I remember they said I could have popsicles and I ate a whole bag full of the banana ones. No problems going thru the stoma and it was over in no time. Good luck

I had a scope in Nov,  I did the prep before but it was different,  Two small bottle's one the nite before and the other the next morning.  It amounted to about 1 and 1/2 cup of fluid each time  it was carbonated,, but wasen't bad tasting.  then they went thru my stoma also.    I don't remember a thing.
