my moms getting an endoscopy tomorrow morning and im scared?

Just a heads up,you may not want them to give you the drug called Versed

( Midazolam )

In fact, many people who use Versed for " IV Sedation,Conscious Sedation" during a procedure are awake for the entire procedure but remember nothing, often believing they were "out" the whole time.

Versed (Midazolam) is an amnestic. It is commonly administered in combination with anesthesia before and during surgery. It is also commonly used for minor procedures like colonoscopies dental procedures like extractions,conscience sedation,twilight sleep, so that patients won't remember pain and discomfort.HOWEVER THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THOSE SENSATIONS WILL NOT BE EXPERIENCED!!!!Forgetting does no mean it did not happen!! Amnesia does NOT take place for some patients.

IT'S NOT MY INTENTION FOR YOU TO NOT GET THE PROCEDURE DONE, JUST INFORMING YOU THAT YOU MAY WANT IT DONE WITH ANOTHER DRUG!!!!!

Here is a note from someone that did use versed

I know I was sedated, I don't remember anything.. but I know I was screaming, everyone could hear me.. My thing is how was I screaming if I'm knocked out.

With an endoscopy I think its just local anesthesia as opposed to general anesthesia were they totally put you out and have to breath for you. Its a pretty minor procedure so try not to worry to much

She'll be OK. This is how her procedure will more than likely go.

Ask you mother if you can check out the link above before you look at it. She probably doesn't want you to worry. It is a common procedure that the doctors should be very trained to perform, so don't worry.
