I'm super nervous about getting this done but I know I need it to get my surgery and it's the last thing I need to have.... I've never been put to sleep by anesthesia and im freaking out!!!! Am I making this a bigger deal than what I need too!!!?? And then my doctor tells me no need to panic it's the same drugs they gave Michael Jackson but you will be supervised and also it's like us putting you in a comma!!!!! WTH ????????????????????

Twilight sleep. Considered very safe. Not a big deal really.

I have an endoscopy scheduled for Friday as well. Should be a simple procedure I was told 10-15 min tops.

I think it will be I've never been user before so it kind of freaks me out and then the doctors said its like a 1% chance you won't wake up!!!! Ughhhh don't tell me stuff like that

I was terrified also, just had mine done a few weeks ago. The worst part was the waiting! Honestly it was no big deal at all, like a nice nap.

it will be a breeze!!! it's amazing how when the drug is given you're out like a light.....and then when you wake up you are fully away not even sleepy...........it really felt like I had only blinked my eyes.

Hope it's like that for me.

Had mine yesterday...piece of cake. Anesthesia is the best sleep I've had. And it goes fast.

I had mine last week and was completely knocked out under general. It went by like a breeze. One minute I was chatting with the nurses in the OR while they prepped me, the next minute (or so it seemed) I was waking up in recovery and feeling great.

I had mine done this morning. I remember being prepped and answering a ton of questions, meeting with the Dr and the anesthesiologist, being rolled into the procedure area, talking to the

Nurses, feeling VERY sleepy and then waking up in the recovery room. I felt NOTHING.. Lol

I had mine done with no anesthesia. They recently started doing this. I had the numbing spray but that was it. I gagged but knew I would so was prepared. They talked me threw it. Easy and I got up and went home.
