Getting colonoscopy tom, yesterday accidentally ate veggies (approx. 40hrs before scheduled appt) & oatmeal (approx 36hrs before appt). what to do??

2 suggestions: Why do you need a c-scopy. And yes would postpone the test if not medically urgent. If the colon is not clean, the test may not be complete and all your prep will be in vain. call the GI doc and update them, best to postpone.
