Dear Jean,
As someone has probably advised, You have to clean your system out the
night before the examination. They give you something called "go
lightly" to drink...believe me, you don't go lightly! LOL That was the
tough part for me...drinking a gallon of the stuff!
It is all worth it since you can take comfort in the knowledge that you
are protecting your body from any cancer...the earlier it is detected the
greater the success in being cancer free without causing trama to your
body. You and your Moms will be in my prayers. Take care my friend and
God Bless.
