I had an endoscopy with sedation this morning. I was a little nervous as I even gag when I go to the dentist! 

Firstly, the throat spray isn't nearly as bad as some people say. The whole thing went really quickly and I dont even remember gagging. Just a weird feeling when I swallowed and some minor prodding in my stomach and then it was done. 

I didn't even feel very out of it from the sedation. Just abit wobbly on my feet and abit lightheaded like you do after a few pints, so quite nice really. 

I just wanted to add this to reassure anyone who is worried. I made the mistake of reading some horror stories on forums before and I think the problem is that most people will only post if they have a bad experience. After my experience if I had to have another one tomorrow I would not be nervous in the slightest.
