The spray is pretty pointless! What they should say is “we don’t want you to have the general anaethetic because you’ll be taking up bed space in the hospital”….
Afterwards the nurse said ‘there, that wasn’t so bad was it ?’ I looked at her in amazement and replied ‘that was far worse than I ever expected, no way will I ever do it without anaesthetic again !’ She looked surprised….
I got the anesthetic even when the doctor argued with me against it but i still for it because i didn’t like the thought of being awake while a tube was going down my throat, the irony of it all i went in to have it done to get a positive on me having coeliac disease and when i woke up a nurse shoved a plate of toast on my lap to eat
LOL I felt that pain! Had “both ends” at the same time for mine. *shudders* such horror!
I’ve had multiple Endoscopies! They don’t get any easier!!!
