    I had my annual physical today and my Dr wanted to know why it's been over ten years since my last colonoscopy. I explained that since my Meniere's got so bad and I am on low sodium diet I am afraid to drink the high sodium (3000 mg) cleaning drink needed for the test.

    My question is have some of you had this test done since your mm and how did you handle it?

    I had one a couple of weeks ago.

    I bought the Low-Sodium crappy tasting shit. They ought to be able to make it easier to swallow.

    I had no ill effects.

    I had been mm free for almost 3 years (suffered with it one and off for a couple years) but since my colonoscopy prep earlier this week my ears are ringing like mad. I really hope it goes away soon and I will certainly investigate some alternative prep method for my next one
