Small Procedure to do
 

I had a small problem with swallowing at lunch 1 day. Not wanting to have a more serious problem, I called my Neuro and he scheduled a barium swallow test for me, They found a very small esophageal ulcer and sent me to a GI doctor. Now they want to a scope to see if it is any problem. The procedure will take place in their office surgery area, and it will require anesthesia, for a short 15 min procedure.
Have any of our group had something like this. If so I would like to hear from you. I have already made the doc aware of my myasthenia and he is to discuss this with their anesthesia doc to be sure he is ok with it. I would like hear your opinion.
Thanks

I had to have short term anesthesia for a colonoscopy. It didn't cause me any problems at all.

Good luck.

I've had the scope before and no issue. They don't use any of the type of meds that we need to stay away from for the anesthesia. Good luck!

They use propofol usually for endoscopies which we can usually tolerate. I've had three done and been fine each time. Although apparently I asked for more mestinon as soon as I woke up, after my second one. I don't remember this at all, but it was past time for my usual dose so I must have felt it even in my drugged state!
