Hi again!
I appreciated general thoughts on anaesthesia earlier (ie avoid Epinephrine, if possible). My GI doc wants me to get a colonoscopy due to gut motility issues. We have to wait a while because of Covid-19; I'm getting a CT scan in the meantime.
However, I'm just curious how people have responded to colonoscopies generally.
I worry about flushing the gut out and damaging my gut biome, but I don't know if that's specifically an ME/CFS concern. And of course anaesthesia of any kind can be tricky for ME (I have apnea and hypersomnia issues on top of the CFS which don't help).
Anyhow, any anecdotes about colonoscopies would be appreciated!
