Serious medical question for getbig experts

[Stephano]

Depends on how they sedate you.  Best to uber.

I was put under for an endoscopy and couldn't keep myself awake afterwards.  Had to take a cab back home and sleep for another two hours.  No way I could have driven back without falling asleep at the wheel.

I have endoscopy appt tomorrow and they'll knock me out for it. Question is, I live literally 5 min driving distance from there and they say I shouldnt drive. Is it really that bad? So just get uber? I'm sure there'll be tons of gay jokes so flame on!

I went to a Gastro about a year ago to check out my digestive track they went down the throat. Determined I had barrets esophogus which I already knew in addition to a hiatial hernia and chrohns. The problem is I started throwing up with a tube in my throat and could not breath. I stopped breathing and went purple and the DR had to call 911. I was dead on the table they had to revive me. When I woke up I had half a dozen EMT around me and the dr was freaking out said he never had to call 911 before in 20 years of practice. Said they thought I was a goner. They then tried to say I had vomit in my lungs and needed to go to the hospital as would be infected said I was purple dead and was not ok I said nah I am fine. They made me sign a release waiver saying I could die after arguing for 20 minutes to be allowed to go home. I never went back for the colonoscopy they wanted to do next. I have not seen a Dr since those fuckers will try and kill you. I drove myself home 30 minutes after being dead.

Did you roll coal in your lifted pickup truck on your way out of the parking lot?  That would have really sent the message that you aren't a man to be trifled with.

I have been sedated 3 times for lithotripsy and have always driven home, I just told them my wife was waiting for me

Man the fuck up

It's not like they're going to chain you to a chair in the waiting room if there isn't someone there to take you home.  They just require you to say you have a driver to cover their ass.  If he has just had a colonoscopy it is too late to cover his own.

I would have Goodrum drive me if I was sedated

Goodrum would sedate you before you got to the doctor's orifice.

Goodrum would sedate you before you got to the doctor's orifice.

At least the exam would be free.

So I just went and got it done. I was knocked out in 4 seconds and when I woke up I was little dizzy but within 3-5 minutes i felt completely fine, felt like I just had a great nap. Took cab home then drove to pharmacy to pick up my meds I dont know what the big deal is. I could've drove myself home.

Was it Peach Cobbler?

Same with me. Each time i had sedation for a procedure they made my ride come inside the office to check in. They would not allow an Uber.

Oddly enough when i was in the hospital for an illness years ago they allowed me to wheel myself outside in a wheelchair and wait for my ride alone.

Weird.

If you'd been sedated, they might not have allowed that.
