Endoscopy fear

Dear all, for anyone nervous about an upcoming endoscopy. I had throat spray and medazolin (spelling?) and although I was conscious I don't really recall anything. In fact I was laid there and asked if it had been done and nurse told me it had I was just recovering now. So it was totally not an issue and I won't be scared as and when I have to have another. I recommend sedation and spray. Good luck to anyone about to have the procedure. Xx
