@ please tell them to make sure you are out..
I know they don't want you to have any more anesthesia than necessary but that is ridiculous! Happened to me once with an EDG...awful!!! Have one next Mon. I will be telling them and thinking of you.

@jeanne5009 with the ERCP they only give you a muscle relaxant and numbing throat spray. They won't put you out...believe me I've asked. It's brutal!

Just please tell them that you have issues with versed. This is what they typically to use. It is "consciese sedation" which means you will be awake but you won't remember anything. I always go full sedation with propophol. They don't like to do that because you an anesthesiologist, but it makes it far more comfortable.
