| 1225123 | 2011-08-22 23:38:00 | Sedation. Good luck. | johcar (6283) | ||
| 1225124 | 2011-08-22 23:58:00 | Yes. It was anything but pleasant (but don't let me put you off). If it was necessary again, I'd opt for sedation. Followed by the 6 pack when it's over. Good luck. :thumbs: |

| 1225126 | 2011-08-23 00:04:00 | I went for the "while you are awake" method, only because I was to drive to Taupo as soon as the procedure had been completed. I asked to be able to watch the procedings on the monitor - it helped keep my mind off the discomfort :) |

| 1225127 | 2011-08-23 00:56:00 | It was many years ago but I think I must have had sedation. Quite a weird feeling as you 'swallow' the scope to assist its' downward passage. Not too unpleasant though. | user (1404) | ||
| 1225128 | 2011-08-23 01:05:00 | Sedation. Husband opted for that, when I came back in after he was asking when they were going to start......... |

| 1225129 | 2011-08-23 01:25:00 | Have a $ each way. ;) Get them to put a Luer in and then choose the spray. If the spray doesn’t work as well as it should, they can revert straight away to sedation. ;) However, if I were to have another one done I’d go straight with sedation. |
