Experiences with

Entonox

My problem is malabsorption due to low stomach acid after using PPIs for too many years, probably plus a dose of entonox in 2019. Any thoughts?

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?

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

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.)

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 .

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.

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

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!

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I can't help asking how much lung diseases is Down to Entonox & Childbirth could that be why more women suffer lung disease We know Aerosols Of Fat causes lung diseases and how we should base of food/meat in beer before cooking frying it " Carlsberg moment " :) We also know Ecigs Vapouring causes
