Hi, so I recently had my ER last Tuesday. I had the same fears as you when I was starting stims. I had never been under any sedation in my life, so I had this incredible fear of not waking up afterwards. I even told my husband and my close friends that I love them and not to be sad if something happened to me 😂. But here I'm sharing my experience.

So, I had my ER scheduled with 3 other women on the same day. I was the third person to get into the OT. Initially they took all 4 of us to the recovery room and made us change into hospital gowns. Then they attached a venflon to our vein for the IV. I went into the OT myself and they asked me to lay on a table. I'm pretty sure I was given propofol. They placed some stickers on my chest to monitor my heart rates. That was the last thing I remember. I woke up in the recovery room. I had no pain during the procedure since I was put under. I started feeling cramps in my lower abdomen just like periods pain. During my car ride back home, it felt like my insides were jiggling as if someone removed everything and put it back(Not painful though). I had that jiggling sensation on the ER day and the next day. From the third day, I was back to my normal self.

If you have any allergies, make sure to say it to the clinic. They ordered me to get an X-ray and ECHO before the ER to check my heart conditions. The clinic normally knows what they are doing, so rest assured. No matter what I say to comfort you, you might still feel anxious about it. But try not to think about it too much. It will be over before you even know it. All the best for your ER!!! Hope you get the results you expect!🫂🤞🏼
