I had a colonoscopy in December and this part scared the shite out of me (not literally, no pun intended).

Once the plunger started going down, I briefly thought about the fact that I could die during the procedure and might not ever wake up. Luckily, the drug is so powerful that I was knocked out before I could panic too much.

If you did it right, there was nothing left to scare out of you.

My blood pressure was in the 150+ range when they were about to give me propofol. I was anxious as hell. As safe as general anesthesia is, it’s natural to feel some anxiety towards something that basically puts you in a forced coma
