Flex sig Prep

@Johnny K posted:

For those who have a J-pouch, what prep do you normally do prior to a flex-sigmoidoscopy? Thanks

2 enemas, 1 night before, 1 morning of.

1/2 of Miralax  colonoscopy prep. (238 grams in 64 oz of liquid) becomes;

119 grams  into 32 oz of liquid in four 8 oz servings.

does the trick and cleans me out perfectly.

Liquid diet commencing noon the day before, 2 tablespoons Milk of Magnesia 8 pm the night before, Water enema the morning of, repeat if not clear.

I’m in the two-enema group, but I do both the morning of.  T liquid diet starting the afternoon before is a good addition. I’ve never used any sort of laxative to prep for a pouchoscopy. Technically we can’t have a “flex sig” because we don’t have a sigmoid colon, but they often use the same flex sig scope.
