Well, after-effects of the prep and scope were really awful - water retention up the wazoo (appeared as though I had elephant ankles!) and abdominal bloating. Solid food was just not making down past the upper belly area. UGH. No running yet, but I did go cycling yesterday. Couldn't eat much and even drinking was difficult 'cause it just felt as if nothing was moving down. But, within an hour of getting home today (was out of town overnight) I pooped 3 times - solid, no blood. What a relief! Then I was HUNGRY and ate a lot throughout the rest of the day. Next challenge will be going for a run and seeing what that does to me. I'll probably give it another week and go in the morning next weekend before it gets too hot . . .
Best of luck to the rest of you who have experienced similar problems. It's no fun and it's embarrassing to share, but it's nice to know I'm not alone.
