For Anesthesia "I had a colonoscopy 2 days ago. I get one every 5 years, and this was my third. I was given propofol. I woke up in recovery with a flaming sore throat and coughing nonstop. I still felt the effects of the meds. I got right into bed and could not get warm. I had blankets and a heating pad to get warm. I was groggy all day and the next. It was NOT a good experience like the other two. I would not take propofol again. I still have a cough and cold-like symptoms."

For Anesthesia "Second time having propofol. First time for an endoscopy - no issues. Second time was for a colonoscopy - had a sore throat develop a few hours after the procedure. From reading other comments, sounds like this could be a side effect."
