I've been referred for urgent tests because my ferritin levels have dropped, these tests basically check for internal bleeding. I just got a message from the hospital saying I need a endoscopy down my throat which sounds so scary. they say they do not use sedation, but do not explain why. I've always been terrified at the idea of putting something down my throat and wonder if anyone can suggest ways of dealing with this or some reassuring words. Thank you so much..
