I just went thru this in Feb. I started drinking the stuff (mixed with Gatorade) at 2 PM & was finished at about 6:30 PM, same day. The next morning was the colonoscopy.
There is more than one prep available. One is definitely "easier" than the other.

Super prep is the best ine to use. The last two times I used it and was empty after just the 1st round....

I have to have a colonoscopy once a year. Colon cancer runs real high in my family.
Have you done the genetic testing for it?

Friend of mine had one done and the doctor springs "you don't mind a few observers, do you?" on him. Next thing he knows there are two dozen student nurses staring at his arse.
I can come close. I had the same thing happen during my vasectomy. Didn't have two dozen of them (just a few female students), but I smiled pretty good nonetheless.

I know but you should drink them all in about a 4 hour period

I believe that's what I had the last time, but not the first.

I'm pretty sure my first one was the evening before followed by another round the morning of. If I recall correctly, the second one wasn't as much.

Had mine done around 10 years ago. For the endoscope, they just sprayed an anesthetic down my throat and shoved in the endoscope. One of the worst things I've had done. For the pooper, they put me on an IV but did not come close to knocking me out. I was coherent enough to ask questions during the procedure and remember every bit of it afterwards. Didn't hurt, but I was aware of everything going on. Still, the prep was by far the worst part - I was so dehydrated and wore out (and my a-hole was inside-out). The drive from Slidell to Covington was stressful to say the least. I'm due again, but can't handle that prep just yet.

The secret to the prep is to prep a few days in advance. You need to divert the onslaught. Start taking stool softeners and laxatives two days before and eat light, clear stuff. The poop needs to come out clear and as earlier mentioned,like pee. Once its clear, you're good to go. Godspeed and hope this helps next time.

You need to find a new doc for those. I've had that done twice and they just knocked me straight out.

I think the disconnect is you had yours in the afternoon & I had mine in the AM.
