not much to it....
You get your throat painted/gargle with some formaldehyde (sp?) gel (at least in my town)...
ya get slipped some sleepy juice,,, a scope is placed down your esophugus (of course you don't know it)-- next thing ya know-- you are away--maybe with just a bit of a raspy throat--- piece of cake

I am supposed to have it done next Friday. They told me they would use Demerol and Versed. Hope I don't know a thing that goes on.

Thumbs up

No big deal. I had this done on Tuesday. My throat was sprayed with a numbing medicine, then I immediately was in sleepyland. I don't remember a thing until I woke up.
