Just resting at home after mine this morning. The worst part was the IV. My throat is a liitle sore. I was nervous because I can't even have bite wing X-rays without gagging and this was a piece of cake. They also found a hiatal hernia.

Thanks for this post. I'm having mine October 4th!

I'm having mine Thursday, my doc wants it because of my reflux issues.

I had my EGD on Thursday, along with a colonoscopy (unrelated to surgery), and the entire top/bottom process was no more than 30-40 minutes. No real pain with IV, no burning with deep sedation meds. As the mom of six kiddos, it might have been the best sleep I got all week -- even with a camera wedged in my intestines. :) I had no pain afterwards, and we left the surgery center for a lunch date at a local Brazilian Churrascaria. Because of the sedation meds, I didn't drive at all that day, but I was otherwise my insanely busy self.
