Hi friends,
It's been a while since I've posted in here. I've made some nice progress in the last few weeks (no longer using pain medication)...however, for some reason yesterday and today has been a little worse, but I'm hanging in there.
I've got a colonoscopy scheduled for late next week, and I've contacted my doctor about re-scheduling for some future date. Although I still have a way to go before I'm totally healed, I have made progress in the last month. I'm wondering if any of you folks have undergone a colonoscopy while dealing with an AF ? I'm told that I will be sedated, but as you can guess, I'm still extremely weary of the procedure. My fears are 1) that I'm not sedated "enough", and that the procedure will be excruciatingly painful, and 2) Although I might not feel anything during the procedure, there might be agitation from the instruments that make the fissure worse.
I hoping that people here have personal knowledge of the colonoscopy, particularly with regard to how it might effect the AF
Thx !!
