If you're hesitating to get a colonoscopy, it might help to learn that Propofol sedation is so pleasant it almost makes the whole experience round to positive. You get to experience a super-stimulus nap: fall asleep instantly, sleep impenetrably deeply, wake up with no grogginess (because you are now quite high). You feel so good that they have to warn you not to make any big decisions or sign any legal docs that day.
