Hey Sarah,

There are a few recent thread's about colonoscopies with heaps of good info - I'd urge you to check them out.

I've never had a colon but we do these all day every day at work. So if you have a question, fire away.

It is rare you will be given a full GA for a colonoscopy. It is a very quick procedure. Having said that, we have a list every day that requires an anethetist which is used for patients with more complex medical conditions or who have high tolerance levels to the drugs we use. Of all the cases we do, very few wake during the procedure. I can count it on one hand. I can also count on one hand how many recall the procedure.
If you do happen to show signs of waking or being aware of what's happening during the procedure, you will be given more sedation.
