I am having the EDG scope on 10/31. Has anyone had this yet? Will they sedate me? They haven't told me anything yet and won't until the night before.

Yes I've had one not to long ago. They put me in a twilight state, so I was awake but I didn't feel any pain. I also didn't feel fear either on what they were doing to me. It went smooth and easy. No worries, you will be fine.

I had one pre op. I was sedated with propofol, and the procedure was done in about 30 minutes. The only thing I remember was opening my mouth so they could insert a mouth guard. They took biopsies of gastric polyps, and that was pretty much it.

I have had one almost yearly for Barrett's Esophagus and they have always used propofol and once they put the "block" in your mouth you don't remember a thing, just waking up. No pain at all. You will do fine!

I had mine about 6 weeks ago. I don't remember anything because they were also scoping the other end too. Just hope they did not use the same scope. Lol. Just kidding. They would have cleaned it first.

Had mine last week and it was fine,i was nervous as heck but the staff had my fears gone in no time.

Yes, I had one in Chicago on 9/12/14...painless!!!
