So tomorrow I have my preop scope procedure I'm pretty nervous just bc I'll be going under anesthesia. I also learned that today everything was sent to the insurance and now we're just waiting to hear back from them to be able to schedule a surgery date. I'm excited, nervous, anxious, and terrified all at the same time. Did anyone else have to have the scope preop precedure? How did u react to the anesthesia? Also, how long did it take to hear back from insurance? I have bcbs of illinois.

I didn't have the scope, but I had a colonoscopy. I would imagine the anesthesia they use is similar. It's one of the really light ones that just puts you 'out' for a short period of time.

If it is, I woke up pretty quickly afterwards, and was fine. I did take a nap when we got home though.

It's amazing what they can do with anesthesia these days!
