The test is no big deal really unless they find something .. and even then the odds are in my favor for successful treatment.CNCCurrency said:

Oh heck with it. Its a colonoscopy. I shouldn't be embarrassed about it. No one should be embarrassed about it. Better to get checked than die of cancer.

A lot of this tightening is on the export side from China, which will impact Europe somehow.Gameboy said:

I just put in an order with a vendor last week before I was aware of this. I did just get a shipping label today, fingers crossed.

Stopping the GLP's a while before the colonoscopy might be a good idea. I had one last year for my ulcerative colitis which had bad prep despite following the directions carefully , so I had to have another a month later which still had bad prep so they could not see everything perfectly. At that point I decided I did not have cancer and if they missed a tiny bit of dysplasia, bad luck, not going through that a third time. This was despite stopping the GLP's a couple of weeks before and trying to modify the prep to give it longer to work despite the reduced GI motility from the GLP's. And using the enhanced extra prep for the second one. Yuk. Took me 7 hours to drink the stuff.MsGizmo said:Well, I am down to 3 vials of sema so I just ordered 2 kits from a US supplier. That's about a 4 year supply for my diabetic husband. I have a year supply of tirz that I will use for myself. I will probably buy more tirz next payday. I also have a year supply of reta.
In case anyone is curious I am having a medical procedure next month so I had to discontinue all glp1s until then. Just going to start all over from the beginning with tirz. I'm not sure what I will do with the reta .. I am not all that impressed with it to be honest.
If you have not stopped them for long before , might be worth mentioning to the Dr or nurse as they may want to use the enhanced prep option.

I had one a few months ago and they didn't have me stopping the glp1 treatment. I have heard others state the same? I guess its up to the Anesthesiologists maybe?MsGizmo said:

The American Society of Anesthesiologists has recently changed their guidance on it but I think most places are still using the older more restrictive policy. The new policy has people stop eating sooner but doesn't require them to stop the med.

Oh, I am putting myself on a liquid diet for 2 weeks before the test. Its the same diet I had just before I had my vertical sleeve surgery. I lost about a pound a day. Sure its going to suck big time, but if I did it before I can do it again. I got 3 more days of regular food then its going to be 4-5 protein shakes a day for a while.lessthanhalf said:

Will the powers last that long? I lost a big pile of HGH because it sat in the refrigeator for 3 1/2 years.ThatNextGril said:

They're all in storage cases in the freezer. It's been reported that the lyophilized powders remain stable and effective for years in a frozen environment. Especially the heartier peps like tirz.BlueDog55 said:

I personally don't know, but the main guy from Janoshik said a long time. There's a couple YT videos he's done that are good. His name is Peter Magic.BlueDog55 said:
