I just had my second - I'm 41. Had my first at age 30. Both were "just making sure" scans as I have celiac disease and a generally unhappy GI tract.

I spent Sunday drinking clear liquids, eating Jell-o, and glaring daggers at my wife as she had salmon for dinner. Sunday night I drank the "prep" liquid which tasted like salty cough medicine. Pretty horrible. I spent the next 6 hours on the toilet. Got about 5-6 hours of sleep.

Monday morning, bright and early, I went into the endoscopy center. I got an IV, they wheeled me in, the nurse anesthetist pushed some liquid into my IV, and the next thing I knew I was awake and breaking wind in the recovery room as my wife was laughing.

I slept the rest of Monday.

It's not bad. Just get it done.
