Had my gastro scope!

Jul 31, 2010

Well I had my scoping done yesterday July 30th. As I sat waiting I found out they wanted me to also do the colonoscopy which I
had done last year in June so seeing 3 other patients waiting to get in for their scoping, I asked why I had to have my gastro redone. They said it was because i was over 50 I said yea and last year I was over 50 too and was told to go back in 5 years. SO because I had my results with me I gave them a copy and I was only to do the gastro. Well I was nervouse.I kept telling them to knock me out all the way.
As the doctor was prepping me he said ok when I tell you to swallow please do so I said HECK no I want ot be knocked out you do it with out my help!! He said it didn't work that way I started to cry and said but I gag with anything in my mouth PLEASE knock me out! The nurse said I wouldn't feel a thing and to relax I cried even more!!
Then I woke up in the recovery room. SO did I go through with the gastro? I don't know !! I hade no sore throat, no gagging feeling and I felt great. Now I only hope they did the gastro and not say ok forget it! she is a wimp!!I'm going to call Christa on Monday and find out if it was done!  Cause if it went well then I was a silly

All I need now is my preo op appointment and my surgery date!!
