  I hope they don't bill you a second time.

  Don't be like the woman, preparing for a colonoscopy, and she felt
that "Vodka was a clear liquid". She went into cardiac arrest during
the procedure, and they had to stop the colonoscopy, and use CPR on
her. She ended up having to do the prep work again, and paying the
full cost the second time.
