Hi @ljmontgo, I think the sneezing can be a side effect according to this information I found --- " Propofol-based intravenous sedation, in combination with periocular local anesthetic injections, induces sneezing in approximately one sixth of general oculoplastic cases." --- Factors prompting sneezing in intravenously sedated patients receiving local anesthetic injections to the eyelids: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20079540/

Are you still having a problem with the sneezing?

Welp it's now 30 hours post procedure and the sneezing has died down a lot but hasn't stopped completely. Thanks for the reply. I saw that article but I had a gastro procedure and wondered if there was some other info that might be useful. Thanks again. I appreciate you taking the time to read and reply to my post.
