I am having problems finding one who will do it with light or no sedation.

They have it down to a science, the doctor walks in, the nurse says count to ten, by 3 your out. Next thing you remember is the doctor standing at your bed when you wake up at the exact time he begins speaking.

Slightly different experience. Had one a week ago (first time). They told me they were administering the drug (Fentanyl). I felt no different. I felt awake during the entire procedure but felt no pain. I'd have sworn I wasn't sedated at all. Had my glasses removed so all I felt was blind. Got wheeled back to my bed and dressed almost immediately. About 1 hour, 10 minutes from the time I put on my gown til discharge. I easily pointed out my ride and my car as they wheeled me out.

And I don't remember ANYTHING about the 10 minute ride home. Nothing. My ride said I spoke normally all the way. But that 10 minutes is gonzo.

For both mine (last year and five years ago), I don’t remember completely going under. I was in kind of a netherworld where I faded in and out. I’d occasionally wake up for a few seconds and look at the screen and then fade back out.

But when the nurse called my name when it was done, I woke up immediately.
