Pouchogram Prep

Topics

Hi everyone, hope all is well during these crazy times.

I'm scheduled for a pouchogram tomorrow AM, to check for any narrowings, kinds, folds, etc in the pouch area.... Been having some straining and pain at times.

My surgeon has retired, so I only deal with my GI, who ordered the test at a local hospital rather than where I used to go. I got a bit concerned while making the appt as, still, most are not familiar with the pouch setup. It took a while to get the prep instructions:

4 ducolex tonight

Water enema in AM

How does that sound to everyone? Can't recall my previous preps for grams or scopes.

Also, any concern going with a new radiologist for this? My GI says it's similar to a basic lower BE and he's comfortable with me going to the local hospital.

Thanks,

Ken

That prep should do the trick. You might want to repeat the (warm) water enema until what comes back is reasonably clear.

Seemingly worked just fine.

The procedure was a wild ride... Had to speak up a few times, but it's done. Is it common to feel very crampy/bloated for the whole day after?
