Have had 3 of the combined Endo/Colonoscopy Procedures. They all were in the hospital as an in-patient. The Anesthesia used was Fentanyl and Midazolam(Versed).

 

No different aftereffects than just having an Endoscopy. Short time in Recovery Room, and then taken back to my room. Up walking my miles in the hallways within 15 minutes. Those Anesthetics or Sodium Pentothal ever gave me any issues after, regardless of the procedure or surgeries.

 

Have Barrett's Esophagus Syndrome so now am on an every 2 year Endoscopy regimen. Originally were every 3 months to every 6 months, for several years. Then annually to now to biennial.Due before the end of this year.

 

Gallon of GoLytely or Nulytely for my 15 Colonoscopies and my 5 Double Balloon Enteroscopies. My feeling? I have been through much worse. But as you say, prep is the most difficult part for many.
