The fuck? What kind of weirdass karaoke do they go to there the standard complimentary colonoscopy isn’t part of the experience? [SHUDDER] Must be that nasty dark back alley karaoke everyone warns you never to go to. Ew.
this can’t be someone’s dream job, it has to pay well
I’d say the same thing about plumbers, who wants to sniff poop all day?
turns out, nope! this guy loves his job https://youtube.com/@draincleaningaustralia
There are more than 8 billion people on this Earth; chances are at least one dreams of this job.
Well, remember the news when one of those fucker even continue the procedure despite the patient SCREAMING in pain and he just doesn’t care?
I had one with no painkillers or sedatives - it was uncomfortable but fine!
“I appreciate your enthusiasm but I’m gonna need you to stop throwing it back on the camera.”
Yeah, butt stuff with an audience was pretty weird.
They were all lovely though, so it was okay. Man, that’d be a weird job!

Best part of a colonoscopy is the fentanyl they give you
It’s usually propofol.
Said fentanyl on the receipt, but fuck if I know. Muscle relaxer and mind relaxer is what the doc said
The ones I observed with my attending physician were using twilight sedation with propofol, and I think they got small doses of fentanyl to manage discomfort/pain during and right after the procedure. The propofol lets them knock you out for a while without putting you under so much that they have to intubate. (That is anesthesia’s job though, so it might be recorded differently on your records)
Probably just different practices, I’m not in the us. I’ve had like 7 of them, and it’s just the nurses at the gastrolab who inject me with the funny juice, but it doesn’t knock me out. Might’ve been an anesthesiologist there to give a nod of approval, but I doubt it. Anywho, seems like you know more about the medicine part of it, so I defer to you Dr. Daddy
That sounds more like a waking sedation. Those will get used in American medicine if it’s just a sigmoidoscopy (the last bit of the rectum and colon), but for a full colonoscopy, they really prefer to conk you out a bit more than that.
Ye, going full under is understandably taken very seriously, and is used less where they think it can be avoided. It’s not common at all to be put under if removing wisdom teeth for instance, unless completely medically necessary, and I think they also do it with severe dentist fright. One time during a colonoscopy I didn’t even get any sedation until like midway through when I started twisting in pain and all I managed to say was “can I have…”
Good times.
