I'd like to know whether the colonography prep is the same as for the colonoscopy prep (a major factor for most.) No reply necessary, I've now read the replies.

I've had 2 colonoscopies. The first was with my PCP, who knew me well (and knew me to be an inquisitive Ph.D.) but didn't tell me until it was too late that he had no intention to sedate me, then turned the machine around and allowed me to watch the procedure on the screen. "fascinating, isn't it?" he said, while I felt the pressure of the fecal load of my life both build, then fall as he inflated and deflated me.
Nothing like seeing your insides in real time.

The second procedure was done by a gastroenterologist who mercifully gave me enough versed to make the procedure almost pleasant, (although I think anyone willing to insert a probe into my rectum ought to be willing to buy me a drink first!)
