Endoscopy

[Thenewmrssmith 36]

Just curious, at what point during the pre-op process did ya'll get the endoscopy? Beginning? Middle? End?

I'm assuming mine will be at the end since I have done everything else at the beginning.

Mine was just on Tuesday & my surgery is on the 19th. I was very surprised at how fast it went. There was a clock in the procedure room that I glanced at when the nurse gave me the anesthesia. It was 11:20. I woke up to see my Mom sitting there & asked what time it was...she said 11:33. What??? Seemed crazy to me!

Min is on the 19th and my surgery is the 15th of July. My surgeon requires them to be no more than 30 days apart.

Ahhhh thanks for all the responses! This means the end is near! Endoscopy is Monday but still no surgery date.

I had mine pretty fast in the beginning and it was the best sleep ever LOL ... They also discovered I had H-pylori and had to go on some antibiotics for 10days !!! It was all good

I had to fast 12 hours before hand :-(

I did mine in December before I decided to do this surgery.

I had it about 6 weeks before my initial surgical date, but wound up getting sleeved a month later.

About 2/3 of the way through for me........It'll take about 12 weeks to complete my insurance required appointments/tests......that goes back to the initial informational session to the last NUT appointment (I need 3 for the insurance)....I had to wait for availability for the initial endoscopy consultation, then waited another 2 or 3 weeks before they could schedule the procedure....

They told me I will be there for about 2 hours, but the procedure itself would only take about 2 minutes.....crazy!

My surgeon didn't give me an order of what appointment to do first, etc......so I just called and made them as quickly as I could.. Good luck!

Just a side note: I have to be at their office at 1:15 p.m. and Istop eating/drinking by 9 a.m.....no other dietary restrictions.
