Okay, so I have had to complete a 6 month trial period (insurance requirements).. I have an EGD in the morning, which is also something required by my insurance company. I have never been put to sleep before, so that is my BIGGEST fear out of this journey for me.

Simply, Being put to sleep is the easiest part of the whole deal, IMO. You take a few deep breaths of anesthetic, sleep, then wake up and it's done. While you're asleep, everyone else is working to take care of you. Enjoy the nap!

It is the easiest part. My anesthesiologist put the mask on and said here is some oxygen take a few deep breaths. My last words were "you liar, I know Sevoflourane when I smell it". I don't remember anything past his chuckle until I was coming around post op.

Lol, they usually wait to turn on the gas after the propofol hits. I guess your anesthesiologist was in a bit of a hurry.

being put out was a total breeze.. so it makes me a little more comfortable for when i actually have my procedure.. i am sooo excited to get this over with.. my mom had the gastric bypass and lost 130lbs.. so.. i am hoping to beat her.. hahaha..
