Dr says I need an EGD. He said they don't put you totally out, but that I won't know what is going on. Please tell me I am not going to know they are jamming a scope down my throat!!! Did you know what was going on??

No you won't know... Trust me.. I am one of the most "pain sensitive" people I know... They have you start swallowing the scope while you're going under.. and before you know it.. it's over and you're awake!!

I was out, not remember any of it! The only thing I remember was they put something in my mouth to protect my teeth and then I was gone.

I just had one done two weeks ago and it was painless!! All I remember is the same thing as liberated sleeve. They put something in my mouth to protect my teeth and next thing you know I was waking up and it was all done. You will be fine! :)

I had it done last week (my 2nd one) and I did NOT enjoy it. I was partially out, but obviously not enough, because I could feel myself heaving uncontrollably, but nothing I could do about it. Afterwards, I was told I threw up multiple times...

:(

I'm a GI Tech & have had an EGD, you should go to a doc that uses an anesthesiologist instead of a councious sudation nurse to give meds. With anesthesiologist there's no reason you should be awake or rember anything.
