I found out today what LLC means....Limited Lower Colonoscopy. And YES

they do sedate you for it! I was so relieved. I was telling the

anetsteologist (sp?) about me being so wound up and the doctor walked

in he said you ought to know me better then that! Well I did'nt but

glad that he didnt do it without sedation. Yesterday when I had the

endo. that woman just zapped me and I was gone! But today was really

relaxing a man was putting me down and he sat and talked to me and

slowly put me to sleep, the last thing I remember was staring at a

yellow highlight marker hanging on the wall and just drifting

away....so cool....lol....anyway they do what is called (sp?)MAC

sedation, and you wake up alot quicker then when they used to give me

demerol and valium. I was wide awake and champing at the bit to leave

within 20 minutes of my procedure. Now I did come home and get really

sleepy again but considering I only got about 2 hours of sleep before

hand I guess that is understandable. Thanx to all who supported me

during my crisis!

Hug,

Katy
