I had to have an endoscopy done and decided to try to have it without sedation as I hate the feeling sedation gives me and how I feel afterwards.
I was very apprehensive but the admitting Nurse was friendly and reassuring. My surgeon, Miss Darrien who did the Endoscopy was cheerful, kind and efficient. The 2 nurses assisting were great constantly telling me how well I was doing ( ha ha)
Anyway it was over fairly quickly and because I had no sedation I was able to leave immediately, I was glad I had decided to have it done this way.
Once again thank you to the caring staff, I consider myself fortunate to live in Fife and be treated at the Victoria Hospital.
