Currently there are a few insurance companies that are debating whether the anaesthesia will be supported, although I think it's not clear at present whether the repeal of the financial support will be finalized.

You will be asleep, and wake up like nothing happened afterward. The worst part is the prep, cleaning out. If you skip any part of this, the test will be incomplete, as the test will be obscured by feces. There is no reason to take anything to relax.

It is a conscious sedation medication. You will be awake during the procedure but your memory of it will be totally blocked. You will also probably get something to relax you too. The few minutes that you are under the influence of the medication will be lost. You will remember nothing. You will also have to prepare yourself ahead of time. You will be given either some pills or some liquid to take that will clean out your lower digestive tract so the doctor will be able to see your colon with his flexible scope. Its sort like a long flexible tube with either a camera or fiber optic device on the end. Its all pretty routine. Don't worry. Usually you will get a dose of Versed.
