I'm going in for my endoscopy in one hour. What can I expect? I'm kind of nervous. I feel like I'll throw up when they insert the tube. Any advice?

My endoscopy is on Oct 30th. They did say I will be under anesthesia so I need someone to dive me to and fro. From what I heard, it's not bad - you may have a little sore throat after. I was scared of this procedure too but now I have no worries. Hope this helped

No worries, they will give you medicine in your IV that will knock you out.

You should be out for it. Try not to worry.

I had mine a few weeks ago and had no effects at all.

Good luck!!

I had mine a couple weeks ago and the nerves working up to it are worse than the procedure. for me they gave me an iv.. rolled me into a room.. had insert a mouthpiece (so that they could put the tube in eaasier) put me to sleep and a couple mins later it seemed I woke up laughing because I was talking like I was drunk. Felt fine right afterwards and got a day off of work for it!!

Kflan,

How'd it go? If you ever feel up to it I am sure that others would appreciate hearing how yours was.

I had mine last week. It was a piece of cake. My throat sore and a friend had to drive me home.

Hi everyone! Thanks for the advice and letting me know about your experience! It was a breeze!

I was 'put under' and woke up feeling good. Right now I have a bit of a sore throat and cough, but otherwise doing well. Just one step closer to surgery day!

Glad it all went well!
