I wish I could help but I have mine scheduled for the 17th and I'm pretty freaked out. My sister had one & she said it's easy. She said they put a little thing in your mouth ( for the thing to go in) & you lay down then they are waking you up. She said you are just fine the rest of the day & it's like taking a good nap. I hope this helps you. :-)

Had mine done a week and a half ago or so. Wheeled me into the OR, I laid down on the bed and they put in the IV. Once I was situated (they didn't put anything in my mouth at that point, just made sure I was comfortable, the anesthesiologist told me he was pushing the meds. I got some fuzzy vision, then prickly warm cheeks, then nothing until I woke up in recovery. I was coughing pretty hard, but didn't have any pain. My throat did start to hurt shortly after I woke up, but lozenges were effective. The sore throat pain was not a big deal. A lot like getting over bronchitis or something. Gargle with warm salt Water and use lozenges, and you'll be fine. My throat was sore for a few days, but I didn't gargle like I was told to, and I was having some pretty significant post nasal drip, which gives me a sore throat anyway, so I don't know how much was actually the procedure.

Good luck!

It was very simple, I.V. was put in, then I was wheeled in and put under right away, I woke up 20 mins later. I felt perfectly fine an hour later and the rest of the day. No sore throat or anything. Piece of cake!

Mine was pretty easy. I V put in, rolled into another room. Dr spoke to me about what he would be doing, they gave me meds, I was talking and then next thing I know, I was being woken up by dr talking to me telling me I did great. The one thing I will say, is that I was tired and groggy the rest of the day and had to sleep it off.

It's effortless! And frankly the IV meds were fantastic. Great sleep! You'll be absolutely fine. My throat didn't hurt a bit.

I just had mine today. No problem whatever. IV and the rolled me over to my side but the nasal cannel in my nose for oxygen, put the bite gard in my mouth. I was out and woke up 20 minutes later. It was all good. My throat feels fine. They just told me no driving today. So I'm watching The Walking Dead ;)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
