Hi everyone
For a good while I was feeling good up until I got a colonoscopy today and its brought back my anxiety. Basically I'm worrying about the sedative. When they put the needle in my hand and put the sterile water into it first I noticed an air bubble left just below the cap so now I'm panicking that when they put the sedative in after the sterile solution that the air bubble was pushed into my vein! I always remember a nurse saying to me that you have to tap needles to get rid of air bubbles and now I'm in panic mode. Should I call a nurse to talk to them?
