What Can You Expect During an Upper GI Endoscopy?

What Can You Expect During an Upper GI Endoscopy?

Dr. Washington might start by spraying your throat with a local anesthetic or by giving you a sedative to help you relax. You'll then lie on your side, and he will pass the endoscope through your mouth and into the esophagus, stomach and duodenum. The endoscope doesn't interfere with your breathing, Most patients consider the test only slightly uncomfortable, and many patients fall asleep during the procedure.
