Is that what it's called?

Probably. You're not really asleep, but, awake enough to hear people talk to you. I've heard people refer to it as being in a kind of twilight zone.

When I had my deviated septum, the ansthesiologist called it her, "special cocktail," but she put the IV in, then added another drug the color of pink champagne.

I remember seeing my doctor telling me he was there and hearing the anesthesiologist saying my name and touching my hand.

They wheeled me to Recovery and I woke to, "All My Children," on tv and very hungry.

Honestly, the endoscopy was worse for me because it dried out my throat and I felt some discomfort for a couple of days. I don't need to be craving more liquids. I'm already diabetic.

You'll be fine You won't feel anything the next day in your rectal area or any pain. Like I said, drinking that salty crap is the worst part to me.
