A weird feeling

Went in for my colonoscopy today. My case manager drove me and picked me up. The procedure went without a hitch. The nurses were all pretty nice. The anesthesia freaked me out again ( I got it at my first one too).
They stuck an IV in my arm and wheeled me in the OR. All I remember was a couple nurses hovering over me and then the next thing I know I wake up in a different room. It’s the weirdest feeling. Because it’s not like regular sleep where you slowly drift off. It’s more like one minute you’re almost wide awake and then you’re out like a light. The doctor says I won’t need another one for ten years. There’s nothing painful about a colonoscopy. The prep is a hassle but it’s bearable. Nothing to be afraid of though.

Glad you got through and have a clean bill of health for a while. Freaks me out too when you go under.
