No, you don't get any meds for that. They need you to be an active participant :P You have to squeeze and push, stuff like that. Like I said, very unpleasant, but pretty quick. I wouldn't want to do it again, but I was fine.
Wow, I was OUT COLD when I had my colonoscopy. It doesn't take much to knock me out. It took me longer than most people to come to. I remember laying on the table and feeling the med kick in. Then the next thing I remember is waking up with my husband next to me in the recovery area. Then I have vague memories of going home. I wasn't fully awake until hours later. Maybe if you have something like that done again you should tell them you need plenty of meds.
