Basically it is cleansing your colon before surgery or endoscopy.

Here is one way:

You may continue with your regular diet through the evening 2 days

before your surgery.

1.On the morning before your scheduled procedure begin a clear liquid

diet only (broths and light soups are fine)

2.At 9:00 AM on the day before surgery, begin drinking your chilled

Gavage solution (Golytely or Nulytely)

3.Drink all of the solution by noon if you can. You will shortly

experience the desired results.

4.By 6 PM, your stools should be very clear.

5.You may drink clear liquids until midnight.

6.Don't drink or eat anything after midnight on the day of surgery.

You should visit the Houston Endometriosis Association " Surviving The

Bowel Prep " page for helpful hints.

I had several people who would come to me for colonic treatments pre

op and post op. Heavy use of pain meds will cause constipation and

bloat. I'm sure your doc will give you a detailed information sheet

on how to prepare.

Hope this helps a bit
