[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 561287, member: 44622"] I have had three and I am seriously thinking of not having any more. I got tested for blood in stools and lucky me had some but it was not cancer, just polyps. I was put on the bowel cancer screening program. According to the examining doctors I don't handle the preparation very well. I usually camp out in the bathroom/toilet and drink the horrible stuff they give you. Only they could call it lemon flavour. The main problem is that you are supposed to drink three litres of water as well as the gloop and I have the greatest difficulty doing that. I have never tested the blood sugars since there is not a lot I can do about it after eating high protein meals for a couple of days and then the nasty stuff. I just do it. A nurse took my blood sugars on arrival at the hospital and they were 5.8. A nice surprise since I had no idea what to expect. They found polyps on all three occasions so I should stay on the program but it is a trial. [/QUOTE]
