Need List Of Clear Liquids To Drink Before Colonoscopy/endoscope


Judyin Philly

Recommended Posts

Hi Friends

I am gluten-free,df, (casein & lactose) soyf, & peanut/free .

I know I saw a list on here a while back and saved it but can't find it now.

They also said Popsicles were ok. What brand was that? Know it can't be anything that is red in color.

If anyone has a list to share, I'd be so very grateful if you can post it.

Trying today to get my list ready for the anesthesiologist with all the meds, drug allergies etc and this would sure me out.

I have the test on Tuesday and must start the liquids tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

Judy, I don't recall the thread. I should think that any clear liquids would be fine.

Judy,

I think any clear, non-red colored liquid would be fine.

I had chicken broth (Pacific Free Range Organic is gluten-free and soy free), apple juice, and jello. Since I had to start the jug of GoLightly <_< in the late afternoon, I didn't really have time to drink too much.

How about Ginger Ale and 7-UP :D

THANKS FRIENDS :rolleyes:

You know, I've given up sodas...course for this event I sure can use them but for the UI was to give them up. Then I had a few glasses of coke and noticed a big connection with the soda and UI.

Hummmmmmmmmm.

Do you know the Popsicle's that are ok?

saw a list on the chocolate chip thread that listed stuff

going to print Pattis now.

Thanks again.

Wish i could find that thread... :ph34r: or maybe it was just brain fog :lol:

Always have to laugh at the GO LIGHTLY ..how about ..GO HEAVY :lol:

Seems these docs use 1/2 GO LIGHTLY with some pills

Have to go and read up on it. Frankly, have been putting out of my mind but the days fast approaching. :o

Judy--

The brand name "Popsicle" products will list any gluten, so I'd stick with those. ;)

Just no cherry ones :lol: Save those for when you get home from the test! :P

I had one last month, they said anything you can drink that you can see thru= EXCEPT RED COLORING I was real upset with tummy and was not able to drink all of the go-lightly that they had me take 6 hrs before the procedure. I kept vomiting it up but I guess it worked anyways. Good luck, don't be afraid the procedure itself, it is a breeze. I know I was anxious, but you probably wotnt remember anything when you wake up.

OH! Judy! is tomorrow the day?

I put my Phosphsoda in Welch's white grape juice.....and I must tell you, I can never, EVER, drink that grape juice again......I think I would barf. :huh: Because the stuff you put in it makes it taste SO terrible. So that particular beverage is reserved only for colonoscopies now. :lol:

Judyin Philly Enthusiast

Thanks so much for all your info

Susie Q...I'll keep that in mind :lol:

This is one case where I'd think a call to facility doing the procedure would be the preferred answer.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
