Guest guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 The stuff they sprayed in my throat tasted horrible. They had to spray it 3 times. Because I have sleep apnea, the anestisiologist did not want to put me completely under so they just gave me a mild tranquilizer. I was awake during the whole thing. I do remember all of it but it wasn't terrible. I did have a slight gag reflex once or twice.
