Hello, I’m having a colonoscopy on Tuesday and wondering how long I’m likely to be in hospital for? I’ll just be having gas and air not sedation as I’ll have my children to look after later.
Hi Broxa I suppose it depends how long you have to wait before everything gets started but maybe 2-3 hours? They will ask you to get changed then perform the colonoscopy then take you to a room to come round a bit and have a bit of something to eat and then you’ll meet with a member of staff to discuss what they’ve seen and if any action has been taken eg. biopsies of any polyps for example
