unfortunately you're not alone. my last colonoscopy and endoscopy i was wide awake and felt everything it wasn't fun to say the least! i recently had a endoscopy and the nurse said a few of the other nurses had the procedure without any meds. she also stated they have patients who've requested no medication! it was very uncomfortable to say the least. i'm on a fentanyl patch so it's very hard to sedate me.
awake during colonoscopy. reason given was tolerance to my nueropathy and anxiety meds. is this possible? . meds are clonazepam and duloxetine. just added gabapentin.
