I never had them put a scope down my throat to check my insides.. they ran a
upper GI to do that… now they stuck a tube up my nose and down the back of my
throat while i had surgery, but of course i was out … But i guess every dr is
different…

also, my mother had a scope put down her throat before to check things out..
(just a test, not for gastricbypass or anything) and she said they numbed the
back of her throat real good, but she was awake during the procedure… i think
if you have a problem with it, you might be able to ask them if they can give ya
something to calm ya or something.. i just dont know.. the only thing you can do
is ask.. but i am sure someone else on this list might know though… good luck
though..

When I had the EGD or Endoscopy, I was given a pill to relax me a bit, and as
was previously stated by someone else they numbed my throat, but I was wide
awake for this test. I am gager but I was able to do this. It is just a
little akward for a few minutes and then it was all over.
