Getting a colonoscopy is an age-related cancer screening required a part of transplant evaluation checklist steps.

Regular prep isn't enough to achieve the full cleanout needed because intestines/colon are negatively impacted by cirrhosis. There are research white papers that explain this.

Yet the gastro office doesn't have am alternate protocol for this. Dr was upset that my person wasn't clean enough despite my asking and requesting more weeks ahead of the procedure to achieve success. So they must repeat... without changing up the protocol. Doesn't make sense.

If you've had to get colonoscopy what were you given, what strategy did you use to achieve complete cleanout?

I am a caregiver for my person with ESLD. I haven't seen this discussed ao I wanted to share this adventure.

My person was given spironalactone in the hospital and continued by Hep for 7 months. They developed gynecomastia as a side effect..painful and demoralizing.

The Hep stopped and switched the meds. But.... no one ever asked if my person previously had cystic acne.

See when you stop spironalactone, the andigens that were suppressed by the meds (hence boobage) now come back full force reigniting latent cystic acne.

Ironically Derma prescribe spironalactone to halt cystic acne and dont really mention the aide effect of boobage.

So back to the future cystic acne is raging. Horrible self esteem returns and its hell.

Derm injected steriods in the worst of the bunch. Theres no telling when/if it'll stop.

Rinse repeat for 2 months now 4 visita to derm.

Derm finally prescribes low dose Doxycycline as a daily med to see if it can be calmed. Now we wait.

Accutane was rebranded and it's off the table because of liver. Derm is hesitant to prescribe topicals without Hep clearance.

Hope this helps someone.

I'm curious if anyone has tried using a power inverter to run a Bissell Little Green Machine to clean a car interior.

With the vehicle garage not having any power I thought this might be a way to get the job done.

Would like to hear what inverter you have, what you use it for and how long it'll run/battery life
