No thanks - but considering I’ve had two radial approach catheterizations with nothing but Versed on board (fully awake and could feel the thing bumping against my heart at times), I don’t know why a proctologist wouldn’t do a scope with light sedation.
Because they blow your colon up like a balloon. The pain would drive you insane. They use the Michael Jackson drug to knock you out. You go to sleep instantly, and you wake-up instantly with no hangover and your head is clear, like after a good night’s sleep.
My doctor uses Propofol for anesthesia, which doesn't leave you groggy. Periodically, I have a colonoscopy and gastroscopy done at the same time. I have woken up at least three times while they are doing the colonoscopy. When I had these last two procedures in June, I mentioned to the anesthesiologist that I have woken up in the past. When I woke up in the recovery room this time, he was there and said to me: "Guess what??" You didn't wake up this time."
