I had an endoscopy and opted for a little sedation, was over very quickly and to be honest I couldn't remember a thing afterwards.Re: endoscopy
Re: endoscopy
Robert matey, have had both ends done on the same morning - about 15 - 20 minutes apart. Because of other 'health issues' wasn't allowed full anaesthetic, had Antanox instead - not very comfortable but surviverable, (t'other end - Colonoscopy) was the more painful.Re: endoscopy
Ihave had both top and bottom, top was a bit uncomfortable, having to swallow the camera made me gag a bit, but staff are very understanding and you manage,Bottom rather painful, but again staff were very nice and gentle,I was given gas & air during this proceedure which helped, with a nurse sitting beside me holding my hand. Both only last a short while, soon overRe: endoscopy
I have had 2 Colonoscopies and 5 Gastroscopies. The last one being a month ago. I received sedation for the majority and a throat numbing spray occasionally. Overall I found the procedures to be fairly quick and painless. In fact I couldn't really remember much about any of them, just feeling sleepy and relaxed.Re: endoscopy
I had 3 gall stones removed from my bile duct a few months ago using this procedure. I had worked myself up into a right state, my imagination running wild, was scared stiff. They sprayed my throat to numb it and gave me stuff to totally relax me. I remember nothing at all not even the tube going down. I came too very quickly and was sitting up nattering with the nurses and feeling fine within minutes.Re: endoscopy
