A member asked:
I need a colonoscopy but i'm too weak to do bowel cleanse. i have crohn's disease & a heart condition w/electrolyte abnormalities. what are my options?

Ask your doctors...: Ask your existing doctors if direct inspection with colonoscopy could be replaced by indirect means like digital camera endoscopy or modified imaging studies. Of course, the doctors and you together will consider the balance between medical necessities and professional possibilities.
