My endoscopy experience: easy as the pies that I miss eating

If you have an upcoming endoscopy procedure and you're nervous, don't be. It's a breeze.
Thanks for watching!

[@rlast1523]

I had my first Endoscopy yesterday. I too was very anxious about it but it actually ended up being a pleasant experience. The prep nurses and the doctor were extremely professional and friendly, so friendly that I ended up exchanging phone numbers with them. The procedure took only 15 minutes but the prep time plus the recovery time adds to the total time. They gave me conscious sedation and rolled me on the side, put a plastic contraption in my mouth with a hole for inserting the scope. After that, I just remember waking up in the recovery room. It seems worse than it really is. No need to be afraid.

I had my first endoscopy 11 years ago and also the colonoscopy in the same session. It was very easy. This Friday I'm getting another endoscopy. What makes me nervous is simply being in an hospital atmosphere. I don't like hospitals. If the procedure was done in a doctor's office, I'd be totally calm.

Just had a colonoscopy and endoscopy done yesterday. It was not bad at all. I have really bad anxiety and I was so scared my heart rate was up. But when they gave me the propofol I was out and I did not wake up in a panic. The entire process was smooth and fast. The only issue is that I have a really bad sore throat kinda feels like strep and a swollen uvula. Hopefully this gets better soon. If not, I will see an ENT. Btw my results were gastritis.

I had an endoscopy two days ago, it was so simple and I had no pain at all.

And at $250 copay a procedure, it is getting rather expensive besides being irritating to me.

What I hate about sedated procedures is when they rush us to wake up afterwards to discharge us quick.

I had one yesterday I wasn’t scared but then I got scared cuz everyone asked me if I was scared so I started thinking I should be scared and I choose the needle over the gas mask cause I can’t handle bad smells so I wasn’t risking it I’m a kid so I got the full anesthesia and After 10 seconds I fell asleep, woke up with a tube up my nose and it’s the next day I still have it It’s very uncomfortable and the anesthesia isn’t going away and it’s very painful especially my jaw and nose but my throat is just uncomfortable and it’s near impossible to eat I’m taking it off in a couple hours I mean at first my problem was just chest pain and heart palpitations so they thought I inherited a heart problem from my mom then they found out it was a stomach issue after acid reflux and that stuff the endoscopy itself idk what the issue is or if there even is one or anything They told me to eat normally and eat whateverrrrr I want even if it’s bad (especially spicy food mostly noodles) but it’s hard to eat with a tube in my throat 💀 And when I woke up I barely saw a thing Btw with the pH tube they attached after the procedure they put a machine thing? Like I press buttons everytime i do or feel smth like pain or cough or eat or sleep n stuff I was not told this before btw I only thought they’re gonna do the camera thing They told me when I arrived btw i have been postponing this for months and I’ve had symptoms since maybe 2020 but the heart pain was since like maybe 2016-2017?

Hi! I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing the same. It's no fun and I wish nobody had to go through it. I've managed to keep symptoms at bay by going on a bland diet for a few weeks and slowly introduced foods/seasonings other than salt and pepper. The gut is a process to heal and it can be discouraging but keep some pedialyte handy and it will be better for you. Find a good probiotic that agrees with you. Some are vegan etc. I still get occasional flare ups but nothing compared to the past.

[@mandiejames8932]

Wow you guys so lucky in USA as we in UK only get an endoscopy awake!! It's awful, you either choose a numbing throat spray only or a light sedative but you can't get both & both times Iv had it has been really upsetting & traumatic, I had my last one on Monday 15 August 22 just 3 days ago and after the sedative when I'm lying on the theatre bed & flat pillow with the mouth guard all in I dozed slightly in that type of sleep where your aware of noises & where you are then I woke right up as the tube was going down my throat because your throat isn't numb & your gag reflex kicks in so all through the full thing you are severely wretching like you do when sick but obviously nothing coming up and it's just the body's reaction to a foreign object being put down throat & into stomach!that doesn't happen when under anesthesia, It's so horrible & your trying to not do the wretches but it's an automatic response your body does when it's awake & each wretch hurts as the hard scope hurts the throat, then they pump air through the scope so it inflates your stomach to see it all & the air from that comes up so you have huge burps between the wretches! Who on earth could ever relax or sleep through all that with just a light sedative? Not me that's for sure 😢 When they take the scope out the wrenching instantly stops & I got wheeled to recovery, I actually had a silent cry because it's so traumatic & i also feel angry because not allowing the numbing throat spray or not having a short general anesthesia is just cruel I feel, it's fine if you don't want anesthesia & choose it but I think most people would want it because of how it feels when awake, they also send a nurse to tell us what the results are about 30 mins later and they will be sent to the GP as we are fully awake afterwards, it takes about 2 to 3 hours on average and I certainly feel it's done this way as it's our NHS so it's the most cost effective and the way to do more endoscopies per day and we patients don't get any choice bar sedative only(which is useless I felt the both times) or throat numbing spray only! No thought for the distress it causes at all, I certainly won't get another one now after my two bad experiences 20 years apart & the proceedure is still not any different, very upsetting & not reasonable to expect patients to do that when other options are simple to do like it's done in USA from what I see, I'm glad you had a better experience and isn't anesthetic fantastic to protect us from really unpleasant procedures like this 👍🏼 Just thought I'd share my UK(Scotland) endoscopy experience.
