I’m so sorry about this.
And FYI if you’re a guy like me who puts it off because you don’t like the idea of a colonoscopy’s entry point: I didn’t know they’ll put you under—you just wake up like nothing happened.

Hoping this might be helpful to someone.
I've had a bunch of colonoscopies and even more endoscopies. The low-grade anesthesia they use has been what they call "dream sleep." They've warned me I might be partially aware, but I never have been.
You just are groggy for a bit when you wake up, then after a little fruit juice and half an hour, you walk out under your own power (you do need to be driven home.) It's easy, painless, virtually no side effects.
