I'm old, 52. Going for a colonoscopy next Thursday. Have never, been under. Very hesitant to do it, but had a 2nd cousin die from it last year
It's just the idea of something going up my butt, is hard to be justified in my mind. Gonna do it tho, wanna live.
Hopefully, I'!! just have sweet dreams, probably nightmares tho

Everyone I know, including myself, who had a colonoscopy wasn't really put "under". They call it something like twilight or whatever. I talked to the doc a couple of times during the procedure, but really didn't realize what was going on. They keep you just barely under because it's such a short duration procedure and they want you awake and out of there when it's done. Wasn't unpleasant or painful. Doc complimented me on what a fine job I had done with the prep before he left. So I was awake quick.
