Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
The consumption of too much cocaine can make you gut spasmodic and can pose some discomfort but in most of the matter it would not cause a technical problem.
If you are under the effect of moderate levels of cocaine then you may not co-operate well and then yourself may pose hurdle.
It is better if you could avoid this drug around the colonoscopy.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!
