Seems unecessarily risky to anesthetize people for a little probe play, i googled it and people who got it done un-drugged say it doesn't even hurt

I'd also assume if they want to actually do a biopsy or anything else involving sharp stuff they (and you) would prefer a bit of pain relief.

If its just about anxiety then whys it so hard to find a dr willing to sedate me for procedures that trigger my panic attacks  If i need something shoved up my rear end to get the drugs i can arrange that!

Bismuth posted:Why do they have to put you under for a colonoscopy, dont they just put gas and a camera up your rear end? As someone that woke up five minutes before they were finished: it's pretty uncomfortable (even with lingering anesthetic) since they pressurize your colon with compressed air (nitrogen?) and stick a steel rod up there. Back in the day, they did not use anesthetic. Think everyone gets it now.

Also they slice a random piece of your large bowel off for biopsy and testing. That may not actually be painful but who knows. Either way, the farts afterward are ungodly. So much volume. You have never experienced a deflation like colonoscopy farts. They don’t smell, just very loud, often long.

They both help prevent the formation of memories too, which can be handy, trauma-wise. The scopes themselves probably aren't too bad - they're about 2cm in diameter - but the nipping at your insides for biopsies and the removal of polyps by ligature probably aren't much fun. (Source: I witnessed a live colonoscopy/gastroscopy twofer a couple weeks back. As part of a nursing placement, not as a leisure time activity, though watching surgery is pretty cool.)

The crust is the same in all three pieces of bread. The first one, however, has a crab-shaped hole.

Baron von Eevl posted:Esketamine is apparently available as a nasal spray. You night want to look into that. It is, and the manufacturer has paid for the full suite of approval tests, so it’s more likely to be covered by insurance. It’s apparently not as effective for a lot of people as IV though, unfortunately.

Ive only had one dr perform it and he puts you under for it. snergle has a new favorite as of 17:25 on Apr 11, 2022 |

You pretty much are somewhat asleep and awake at the same time. You can respond to requests to reposition but your conscious mind doesn't form any memories of the procedure.

They both help prevent the formation of memories too, which can be handy, trauma-wise. This is incorrect. First off when you say general anesthesia, all you're referring to is the medication cocktail the patient gets pre-procedure. General anesthesia can be a wide variety of medication combinations, it's not one specific drug. Propofol is a general anesthetic. Check your DDG, epocrates or even ask Dr. Google. It's therapeutic class is literally "general anesthetics." It's not an analgesic if that's what you meant, but it's entire purpose is the induction of general anesthesia - and it will 100% knock you out. I use it on rescue as part of our "facilitated intubation" protocols (RSI protocols are different), and I absolutely adore the looks from the ED nurses when they realize we carry propofol on our trucks. The amount you give can alter what happens as well. If you want conscious sedation effects so you can reset a shoulder that's out of socket, for example, you'd give less because you don't want the patient totally unconscious. If you're inducing anesthesia for intubation, for example, you'd give a larger dose (maybe along with a paralytic, situation dependent) then continue propofol for your anesthesia. The amount of drug given doesn't change it's drug class or indication for usage though. Zipperelli. has a new favorite as of 20:31 on Apr 11, 2022 |

I'm in Aus, saw a news report suggesting in clinic infusions running at ~$800 per session, with no Medicare/ Private coverage. Australian governments/ Therapeutic Goods Administration are pretty backwards when it comes to novel approaches.
