NJ1980 5 Posted October 20, 2016 My endoscopy is scheduled for tomorrow! Apparently I am being sedated for this. Any thoughts or any heads up with regards to the endoscopy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nickisleeve 127 Posted October 20, 2016 Literally painless. Afterwards had sore throat for a few days. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thereselynne 5 Posted October 20, 2016 Very easy. Took maybe 10 minutes. Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WLSResources/ClothingExch 3,444 Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) You wanna be sedated, just like the song. Maybe a sore throat for up to a couple three days, maybe not. If so, it may even be as mild as the slightly annoying feeling that often precedes the common cold. Maybe a slight bruising around the collarbone or upper shoulder(s) from being leaned on during the procedure, maybe not. Nothing eventful, nothing that will keep you from going about your usual routines. Edited October 20, 2016 by WLSResources/ClothingExch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sai 785 Posted October 20, 2016 Most people have no issues but just in case you have a crazy throat like mine (Even when I was completely asleep, my silly throat decided to fight it and spazz out grrr), you may have a very rare side effect of having bad acid reflux for a week or so. It will go away, just take OTC Antacid, and it'll be sufficient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjdomingo 5 Posted October 20, 2016 You might just have a tiny sore throat afterwards. Nothing to be frightened about, they give you a tiny bit of sedation and your done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icantbelieveit 955 Posted October 20, 2016 Had tondrink some stuff before I was knocked out extremely close to puking it up. The absolute worst part about the test. They soon knocked me out and I woke up in recovery and walked out 10 mins later. No sore throat or any different feeling from when I walked in.
