You were knocked out for the endoscopy? I was sober with only throat local anaesthetic spray. I assure you it is one hell of an odd feeling procedure.
I was pretty relieved as soon as they were putting me under just because of your posts. I was pretty sure they were using midazolam and later confirmed this from the nurses who mentioned the trade name Versed. Really, I don't see why they couldn't have spared a few milligrams on you for the amount of discomfort it would have avoided... But than again every hospital has a different policy and perhaps they couldn't have spared the bed your hypnotic ass would have taken up for the short recovery time. Damn those nurse Ratchets!
