Hi Sherry...oh, that doesn't sound good that the gastro bleeding is continuing. It's good they've got her in for a c-scope asap.
She must not take the iron supplements, but remember, she can still eat foods that are rich in iron...can she eat meat?
The HalfLytely seems the best for your gma because it's not as much to drink and to go through the kidneys. As well, she won't have to starve for days before (my perception of using the Fleet, etc.).
I checked and see there are flavour packets as well...I would suggest you NOT put them in because if the taste is nauseating to her, she won't drink the rest...
Keep us posted please.
