Just maybe a little sore throat afterwards (I didn‘t even had that) and your stool might be runny that day because of the anesthesia meds.

Honestly.. don't worry.. I was out in a few seconds and I can't remember a thing... other than when the nurse came to wake me up... And I had to laugh about it later since I was scared as heck.. all for nothing : ) ..

Hi
Just get them to put you out for your endoscopy, you feel absolutely nothing and wake up not even knowing it’s happened. You might experience a slightly sore throat, but it’s nothing, only lasts for a short while, think mine was like that for about half an hour. 👍😁

Don't be worried because it's not nearly as bad as you think it'll be! I had one done almost a year ago and you're sedated to the point where you can't feel a thing. You may feel the scope entering or leaving (but again, you're sedated and it doesn't hurt in any way) but other than that, it's a quick procedure.
You'll probably have a bit of a sore throat, like everyone's said, but other than that you'll feel like yourself in no time!

It’s not worth it since you won’t feel a thing.. just go with the anesthesia and they knock you out for that time..
and don’t take the extra spray though for the throat to numb it. You won’t need it and it’s really disgusting and you think you can’t swallow.

Avoiding the diet which causes it (above mentioned triggers)
Taking acid suppressant medications
Avoiding stress
