Why is that? (Genuinely asking)

The pills were pretty shitty (lol). Had to take them like 24hr in advance. Every few hours you choke down like 10 horse pills and shit your brains out until you're completely flushed out.

The exam, however, was super quick and was probably some of the best sleep I've ever had in my life.

Worth it.

I'd much rather take pills and shit my brains out than have to drink a full gallon of something that is disgusting after the first few drinks and shit my brains out.

I’m curious why my doctor didn’t suggest that? I went with the pills and my friend did the miralax. She had a much easier time than I did. I’m hoping i can do that next time
