Hello,

I tried to have a colonoscopy a few years ago. They gave me fentanyl and versed and I also told the Dr. and prescribing Dr. about it. Both said it should be OK.

However, it was so painful for me that they had to stop in less than a minute. Just couldn’t go on. I’m no sure if this is related to the medications I was given or the procedure itself. Some people can tolerate colonoscopies more than others. A friend of mine did not feel any pain at all.

I guess you’ll find out.
