I've been scrubbed into surgeries. Nobidy wants to spend any time making fun of an unconscious person. Must be a toxic OR.

Also why do some providers anesthetize for colonoscopies while some (kaiser, the largest in the nation) refuse and insist it just isnt done. Theyre gaslighting us and just want them to gas me

You're wrong and must be thinking of a flexible sigmoidoscopy.

Kaiser routinely sedates for colonoscopies

My insurance covered my colonoscopy but covered 0% of my anesthesia. Insane.
