First time doing gastroscopy enteroscopy

In fact, strictly speaking, gastroscopy is not the first time to do, many years ago there was a physical examination I chose to do a gastroscopy, that gastroscopy is ordinary gastroscopy. At that time, I was relatively young and had no relevant experience, so I said I would do it. There was no anesthetic, and a long thin tube was inserted directly into the mouth and then through the esophagus to the stomach. The whole process is not long, and then there is no pain or unpleasant feeling.

It has been a long time since I wanted to do a colonoscopy, but I couldn't make up my mind. But in my mind, it's better to do it sooner rather than later. This time, I just came across the unit on the physical examination, I want to do the colonoscopy, my friend suggested that anyway, on the anesthesia, it would be better to gastroscopy colonoscopy together. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to get a good look at the whole thing, but I'm sure you're going to be able to get a good look at the whole thing.

Doing a colonoscopy is a bit of an exaggeration of what my friend described as the preparatory work before the examination. The main thing is to clear the bowels, too cumbersome and painful, it is these descriptions let people on the colonoscopy far away. I didn't know what it was like until I went through one myself.

First of all, I had to make an appointment, and usually the gastroenterology is done in the afternoon. The night before you can only eat some thin rice or noodles, and the next day you can't eat. The preparations had to be done in the morning. Three packets of medicine and two vials of medicine were prescribed. Three packets of medicine is a compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte bulk, blended into a 1L solution, divided into three separate within an hour to drink, the taste is a little salty, but also made into a pineapple flavor, I feel that the taste of strange. There is no way, the water converted, a big mouthful of down to the stomach, drink to later have the feeling of wanting to vomit.

Drinking after a reaction came, and kept going to the bathroom, the process of taste is not described, until the contents of the intestinal tract all cleaned up. Then a bottle of antifoaming agent for gastroscopy with water to drink, the preparation is complete.

Rush to the hospital in the afternoon and get in line. In the process of queuing up for the carbon-14 test for H. pylori, which was found to be positive a few years ago, and then prescribed a course of medication to treat it, this time it was the equivalent of a retest. The result was negative.

Played a good retention needle, waiting in line, to be honest, I was the first time to face on the anesthetic, the heart is still a little nervous and apprehensive. My turn, into the examination room, according to the doctor and nurse said posture lying down, began to still awake, suddenly eyelids a little heavy, and then lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I was already waiting for the wake-up room, and my wife had already come over, but I still felt a little dizzy. Then I got up slowly, sat for a while feeling better and left.

The whole thing was a sleepy checkup, and the results were fine.
