@rjoestein having someone accompany you home after any surgery or procedure done under sedation/anesthesia is standard procedure because you will be groggy so cannot drive home . If you do not have anyone to accompany you taking a taxi cab on your own should be alright.

An endoscopy is quite painless because it is done under sedation. I have had several over the years. Quit safe.

@rashida Yeah I figured it is standard proceedure. Unfortunately, it will be difficult to get someone to come with me because the proceedure is during a weekday afternoon.
However, I don't drive anyway. I live in a big city with lots of public transportation and plenty of taxis. I can pre-order a taxi for when it is over and my apartment is just 2km away.
So, it will be good (knock on wood).
