Colonoscopy Sedation or Entonox
I am mentally preparing myself for the experience but my most significant question mark is whether to opt for Sedation or
Entonox
(Gas & Air). What are people's experiences with them both and which do you prefer?

Coronary spasm and Entonox
Has anyone with coronary spasm had
entonox
pain relief for a procedure and is it safe.

Intermittent pain due to medication injury
The only thing I can see working is
entonox
(gas & air), and no-one’s going to give me that at home for this “minor” pain. Is she right? (Non-medication techniques, heat packs etc., have no effect. Distraction works if the pain level is low.)

Advice Please!!
Initially I’ve refused to have another one due to how traumatic it was at the GP, but she has assured me that there’s sedative and penthrox/
entonox
options as she would be doing it. Or I go into the pill after removal or alongside.

Will also be having the procedure done without sedation (due to the fact that I have no one who can stay with me overnight afterwards),I understand that I will therefore be having
Entonox
along with some other form of pain relief .

Flexible sigmoidoscopy
My IBD nurse tells me it could be caused through the sigmoidoscopy ( the after effects of
Entonox
), come on 5 days seems along time to me.

Colonoscopy due
I have been given the choice of conscious sedation or
Entonox
. Clearly the recovery rate is much quicker with the latter and you can drive yourself home. But can anyone advise who has had a colonoscopy or even several ! which They would recommend. Angie

Newly diagnosed as B12 deficient after suffering symptoms for at least 30+ years & possibly since childhood!
Interestingly I have read that
entonox
can deplete the body’s stores of B12 & my symptoms were particularly bad after the birth of my second baby when that was all I used... & lots of it!

Entonox and PA
So I was wondering if it actually would have made any difference if I had taken
entonox
.

Does it present any risks for COPD
At a recent hospital appointment I was offered the use of
Entonox
as a sedative. Would it do any harm to my COPD?

17 weeks pregnant.. second stay in hospital
Thank goodness for
entonox
! The entire team were convinced my waters had gone as the blood was watery (despite me arguing it had been watery since the bleeding started nearly 4 weeks ago) and then another doctor was convinced she could feel membranes bulging on the pelvic exam.

Update on Yesterday’s Colonoscopy
In hindsight this might have been the after effects of the
entonox
. That’s all folks! x

Change in my medication help needed
She immediately gave me a panic attack because she removed the
entonox
from beside my bed because it shouldn't be there when she came back I was shaking from head to foot I could hardly speak and I was hyperventilating I asked her what she was doing as the nurses on the ward weren't bothered by it and

Second experience of a bone marrow trephine biopsy much better than first
She made sure that I knew how to inhale the
entonox
, and that I stayed awake and in touch. The registrar meanwhile did the trephine biopsy. There was a few moments of low level pain, during which the nurse held my hand, and then it was over.

Intrinsic antibody test after B12 multivits
Interestingly my fatigue, weakness and dizziness increased after having
entonox
(gas and air) for a sigmoidoscopy (results clear but had due to severe IBS pain). I have had to take some time off work, been more clumsy and feel "all over the place" /foggy brained.

Top and bottom 'oscopys' tomorrow....
Now on to tomorrow.....I've been promised pain relief, spray, sedation AND
Entonox
(I asked for that one). They are quite nervous of me as I'm officially a bit bonkers, and the agreement is we will try it this way but if its too much I will have a General the following day.

I suffer with Severe IBS - At whits end now
Specialists started doing tests, had exams on back side and then a colonoscopy which had to be aborted due to me screaming in pain even on
entonox
and sedation. Then i had an MRI exam which showed nothing up Bloods and stool samples were negative so a label of IBS was branded on me.

Quick questions before Colonoscopy tomorrow.
I also wanted to ask if anyone knows what conditions stop you from having
Entonox
? I really don't want to be sedated but I have a few health conditions and don't want to go tomorrow and find I have to be sedated.
