However I had it all done and I didn't even have any sedation, just the spray on the back of the throat. Apart from a bit of wretching, it was not too bad, although can't say I would want it again.
I had some little polyps growing in my stomach which he took 4 biopsies of and I see my GP for those results in two weeks time, but i have no sore throat or any side effects from it so am now back to normal.
WELL DONE YOU! BRAVER THAN ME

Oh how very brave you were Bev, I had to refuse mine once I got the appointment, but I cancelled it, I told them I was fine now thanks!! You are very brave, and let's hope the prolyps can be removed easily for you and you'll be right as rain afterwards. Good luck with it all Bev.xx

A great big gold star to you for bravery! Very well done, and it just shows that all that worrying beforehand can actually be worse than the actual procedure.

all the good luck in the world for the results now.
