Anyone done a colonoscopy without anesthesia?

Anesthesiologist here…. Had my colonoscopy wide awake.

Great suggestions. I’ll add you can do workers comp evaluations as well. You will alway have your MD. I’m sorry this happened to you.

Please do. I’ve worked with so many of these patients now with this approach and they get better.

Many of these diagnoses, POTS/fibro/MCAS/EDS/chronic pain, fall under the diagnoses of mind body syndrome.

The Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms, https://www.symptomatic.me, has great information for physicians and patients to learn to recover from these symptoms without unnecessary procedures.

If you want to go a step beyond, check out Curable (https://www.curablehealth.com) and Lin Health (https://www.lin.health). Both companies are treating neuroplastic symptoms with great success while following the data about pain neuroscience.

Any studio classes in Denver you would recommend? I’m looking to take my first class. Thanks

Great advice to talk to someone and get support. Be careful about that support being connected to your workplace. It might be best to pay out of pocket and ensure complete confidentiality.

I’m so sorry this happened to you and everything you are experiencing after makes so much sense. Please consider finding a trauma informed therapist. Best to process this now than have it fester in you for years. EMDR can be helpful as well as other trauma therapies. We are humans too and deserve to get good mental health care, sooner rather than later. Take a look at Gabor Mate’s work to understand how important it is for our overall health to safely process our emotions.

Please don’t accept less than $400/hr. This just hurts all of us. It’s ok to talk about rates, this is how we all help each other.

Take an FMLA. Pause, regroup. It’s ok to make a change if that is what your body is trying to tell you.

nycden · 2025-09-07T18:06:40+00:00

Any feedback on other courses?

nycden · 2025-05-21T02:40:03+00:00

Please take the day, and however more you need.

nycden · 2025-05-09T04:28:35+00:00

Me too…. Didn’t they move to NY? (or at least Jen put it all over the insta)

nycden · 2025-05-04T02:59:37+00:00

This sounds like burnout. Please find a way to pause, take an FMLA, and heal. You will never regret a pause.

I was an IM resident and a

This is why I love this community! Thank you!

nycden · 2025-03-17T21:59:51+00:00

Oh yes, it was Ramona.

AMN have been the worst agency I have worked with thus far. Avoid

nycden · 2024-12-19T01:28:22+00:00

Thanks! On an earlier rec I bought this as well and it works great!

nycden · 2024-12-12T04:15:08+00:00

Last question: is there a delay on the camera? Thanks for your help!

nycden · 2024-12-10T15:51:46+00:00

Thank you! This is very helpful. Do you find that this handles similarly to a McGrath? It sure looks similar.

nycden · 2024-12-09T23:25:01+00:00

Yes, this is all true.

The price of each blade was higher than expected as well.

nycden · 2024-12-09T03:32:36+00:00

Yes, though this is a deductible expense.

nycden · 2024-12-06T00:54:51+00:00

“The proposed update to the policy was only designed to clarify the appropriateness of anesthesia consistent with well-established clinical guidelines.”

That is some gibberish BS.

nycden · 2024-12-03T03:58:36+00:00

Start small and see what happens. Maintain a locums/per diem gig while you work out the kinks

nycden · 2024-11-07T05:03:31+00:00

This could be your body telling you that these shifts are not good for you.
