A member asked:

How long after having an endoscopy&colonoscopy (at the same time) & they also take a biopsy are you allowed to eat? also will nausea be felt after?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: Nausea from these procedures is not common. You will be able to eat a few hours after the procedure, may be even sooner. As soon as you recover from the sedation and have normal swallowing reflex, it will be safe to eat.
