For Anesthesia "Good med, knocked me out for my colonoscopy; nurse anesthetist couldn’t have been nicer-talked about music, etc. Decent woman. At any rate, it did its job; a friend drove me home, and caffeine was able to “cut the fog.” The following two days, though, I was sleepy as hell! I would seriously advise that you take the next couple of days off, if possible. Takes a while to wash out, not instantaneous as we were led to believe. Having said all that, I’m an older woman, and everyone’s response is different. Other than the grogginess, I suffered no ill effects, thank God!"

For Anesthesia "Just had an endoscopy today, and I went to sleep in seconds and woke up feeling just a little groggy. But a few hours later, I was congested and sneezing like crazy!"

For Anesthesia "Felt amazing. Within 2 minutes of infusion, I was out like a light. For a colonoscopy. Still pretty drowsy, but generally okay."

For Anesthesia "Burns going in, then knocked out. I love it. My wife cries when she woke up after she had it, but not me, I feel good, just groggy."
