It's kinda funny, but I told the nurse at the colonoscopy unit when I was scheduling, that I had issues with bowel control when I take the laxatives for the bowel prep, and she suggested I wear adult diapers to the test if this was a problem. If you are talking about urine incontinence, I would suggest yes, it's OK to wear them to the test. You won't be wearing them into the procedure room for the test, just empty your bladder RIGHT BEFORE the test, and it should be no biggie.
