Need unsedated colonoscopy?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Easily can be done: Colonoscopy can usually be achieved with no sedation if the patient is willing and motivated. Talk to your doctor to see if this is a good option for you.

Most patients: Find mild sedation helpful during a colonoscsopy however many can tolerate the procedure without sedation. Talk with your endoscopist to see if you are a candidate.
