In the end I had it done with just the freezing spray.
The girl found where I was bleeding from, and took some biopsies. Now the wait to see the consultant, which could take a good few weeks.
It was horrendous, (probably my own fault for being so stressed about it) but at least we now know why I am so flipping anaemic.

they knocked me out for mine - but it was the States.
Derekpara, I was sedated and had the banana throat spray! I would do the same again. I'm always very anxious. Didn't mind the throat spray. The nurse couldn't understand It! Lol..

Errrrrr, I kept them on Gness :)
Thanks, Patsy. Yes, my two downwards endoscopies were b...y awful at the time - non-stop gagging etc so this time I think I will go for the knockout drops.

Cheers.

I'm sure they were Bazile, and they were needed, could have done with a couple more for my feet,they told me I was running a marathon down that end.
Hey Gness, maybe THAT is why they let you keep your shoes on.
I did have some answers on AB about why I had to keep them on, Ferlew.......but none fitted with the type of shoes I was wearing......x
