Re:ERCP Medication Question

[Guest guest]

I agree with everyone and use exclusively fentenol

during an ERCP. I also experienced waking up during

the procedure and not being able to react at all. This

was probably the worst panic moment I have ever had

and would never want to go through that again.

The good news is the more ERCP's you have the more

they get the dosage down. Number 4 is on the way in

August. I just wish they would put me out before they

tape that holder dealy in my mouth and spray your

throat with that nasty #@^*!! I didn't believe

everyone when they said it gets better, but it does.

At first I hated the thought of having the ERCP, but after maybe

12 or so I got quite comfortable with them. I was always

given a general a general anesthesia, and that took off a lot of

the edge. I was a bit nervous sometimes, and told the nurses to

see about putting me out as soon as I got into the room. Worked good

since I do not remember much, except wakening up....

My theory is put me out and do what you have to.....I need the rest.
