I'm not a poo troll, I promise!
I was getting an MRI small bowel and was told I was getting some kind of contrast by the secretary.
I'm a doctor, but not a radiologist, so maybe they assumed I knew?
They gave me a liquid a few hours before that tasted nothing like the prep for my colonoscopy recently. I know I should have asked more, but I always tell my patients why I'm prescribing what I'm prescribing and I really don't want to be 'that fussy patient who is a doctor.'
On driving home after scan, the cramping started. I can only describe what happened on arrival at my bathroom as 'profuse.'
I called hospital and they confirmed that it was klean prep. And the effects lasted longer because I wasn't fasting afterwards.
Oh the horror! I'm so glad I hadn't planned anything for that afternoon. Could have been far worse.

AIBU?
To wish they told me I was getting industrial grade laxatives?
