Had colonoscopy today w/heavy sedation. feel like i'm breathing a little heavy or cant get a good full breathe. normal after sedation?

Heavy breathing: interesting that you had a colonoscopy at such a young age. Were you having breathing problems before? I would go to the emergency department and be evaluated. Your problems could be related to the procedure but also related to why you had the procedure. Do not wait and ignore it.
