I had one several years ago .... just don`t do what I did . I had a flight later that day ( early afternoon ) and they told me I would have to go the next day because of the anesthesia . So I asked the Doctor how big a deal it would be to do it without the anesthesia .... just numb the throat . His words ... " not a big deal , you won`t have any problems " . So guess what I did .
That`s when I found out there is a huge difference between what a Doctor says is no big deal and what I think a big deal is .
Numbing the throat doesn`t help when they put something the size of a fire hose down your throat , at least it felt that big !
Anyway he said I did great ... I swore I would never listen to him again
The next one was with the anesthesia and really was no big deal .... and I was able to drive after an hour or so .... and it gives him time to really check things out .
