Hi.
Has anyone had this done? I'm meant to be having it done to Tuesday and I am terrified! X

It’s unpleasant, but not awful! Worst bit is the tube going in and out, but they numb your throat and may also sedate you too a bit.

I had one after I had my gall bladder removed to catch some gritty bits that had escaped... I asked for plenty of sedation as I was terrified and I didn't feel or remember a thing! Try to stay calm, and good luck!

Just read you were having it today. Hope it wasn't too bad for you.
