Colonoscopy

Hiya,

A bit of background to my question:
I have a history of diverticulitis, which has led my doctor to book me in for a colonoscopy this Friday morning @ 0730.
I'm currently dosing Epiandro @ 400mg spread out 4 x per day, and LGD @ 10mg once per day.
I have three days of restricted diet plan, starting Wednesday, followed by induced diarrhoea the day before. Yeah, I know awesome,right?

Here's the instructions:
If you are having a morning procedure please follow the directions below the day prior:
drink clear fluids only
at 2 pm dissolve the entire contents of one sachet of PICOPREP in a glass of warm water. Drink the first glass of preparation and you must follow this with plenty of clear fluids (at least 1 L) to prevent dehydration and to flush out your bowel
at 6 pm dissolve the entire contents of your second sachet of PICOPREP in a glass of warm water. Drink the second glass of preparation and you must follow this with plenty of clear fluids (at least 1 L) to prevent dehydration and to flush out your bowel
you must fast from midnight the night before your procedure (nothing to eat or drink) until you have your procedure.

So the obvious question is what should I do with my cycle? I can dose the LGD the morning before as usual, skip it the morning of the procedure, and resume it the morning after. What about the Epiandro though?

cheers
 
I have Crohn's, so I had 6 colonoscopys. I would take the lgd in the morning. Good luck with the prep! That's some nasty liquid man!
 
Bro, you are going for a colonoscopy. Why are you even questioning this. Just skip your doses, nothing bad is going to happen by missing 3 days worth of doses. It isn't worth it to throw any variables into the mix. I don't even bat an eye at skipping any hormone for a test or procedure. I have to hold bodybuilding "Supplements" & "Medications" all the time for things. Unless I'm 4 weeks out from a show, who cares..

I agree with this. Just skip the dose that day and probably the day before. It's not going to make that much of a difference on your overall gains.
 
Just curious if you know the stack is causing the problem why are you taking the expensive colonoscopy.
