I am getting an MRE in a few hours. Kaiser website didn’t have many instruction about prep. Only don’t take anything by mouth after midnight. Looking online, it says 4 hours before test. I’m thankful because I had diarrhea yesterday, fasted on liquids, and woke at 2 am thirsty.
I see they do more than just make you drink something 2 hours before test. They inject you with contrast and something that makes your intestines slow down. Supposedly you get diarrhea and nausea afterwards.
Can you share your experience with this procedure...like drinking small amounts of water prior, need for toilet afterwards, etc? Thank you!
