Hi off to Addenbrooks hospital on weds for the above, it's a 24hr one.

I would appreciate any comments from anyone that has had this procedure.

Many thanks

It's a little uncomfortable when they are inserting the tube but this stage is over very quickly. The tube is very thin and it doesn't effect your ability to eat & drink, I carried on as normal when I had mine and didn't change my normal routine, you are advised to do this. I didn't have any trouble sleeping either and when they remove it it's super quick.

Hi,

I had this done one month ago. It wasn’t half as bothersome as I expected it to be. I slept quite well too. I’m just waiting to go back for results now. I hope you find it as easy as I did, please don’t worry. 😀
