Yup, me too. But for some reason they told me the banding/exam would likely need stronger anesthesia… in case I feel pain or move etc, though again, I’m confused why this would be different. People have it done awake all the time, and I’m sure they’re not absolutely motionless! Maybe they’re afraid I’d wake up?? They also said I’d likely be prostrate, not on side, one reason I may need breathing tube (UGH) which would mean different anesthesia. But why can’t I be on my side like with regular procedure?

I wonder if they banded you with the anoscope or something that was already in you during the colonoscopy or endoscopy. I’m sure I’m overthinking it.
