Denise,
Piece of cake! If you haven't had your colonoscopy, do it at the same time as the endoscopy, then you don't have to do it for another 10 or so year.

Mine was done "open sedation"> They sprayed the back of my throat with a numbing spray. Then they administered IV sedation. Next thing I know I was waking up and it was over.
I am having a revision surgery so I had to have the whole arsenal. Colonoscopy, Endo, barium enema,heart stress test, andblood. They also require a psych exam.
Hope this helps

These are our OH family members that will have surgery Tues 1/6/09
We are covering them with prayer
and good will wishes. WE all agree that they will all have uneventful surgeries and their surgeons will be at the top of their skill level. They will recover quickly and there will be no issues with the anesthesia. For those that have a hospital stay, that the staff from the nurses to the person that empties the garbage will be kind and compassionate. 
They will be kept comfortable and as pain free as possible. Then they will allow us to rejoice with them as we all journey to a healthier and happier life. Those that have companions and families will feel their love and 100% support.
Please check in with us when you feel up to it and let us know how you are doing. Be kind to yourself and allow your bodies to rest and heal.
peace

Topic: RE: no pre-diet??
I was given no strict specific pre-op diet either.
They said to not have fast food, sweets and to up your protein before surgery...but nothing like a full liquid diet. This is a bariatric center of excellent in Indy.
I think I WILL do it with just the protein shakes (which \I actually like...Isopure fruit punch mixed with cherrylimeaid crystal light) for 1 week or 2 before though.

Topic: What do they do for pre-OP tests...How bad is endoscopy?
I am assuming that they take blood. Do they do anything else for the pre-op tests? How bad is the endoscopy....what do they use to numb your throat or sedate you some?
Thanks!
