In moments like this, when you just need a little support and someone to lean on while you talk through your struggles, I really find myself missing this forum. ☕
Maybe someone will check in.
About two weeks ago, I dealt with my very first diverticulitis flare-up. I had absolutely no idea
I even had it until then. I took some Augmentin and Medazol (my CRP was up at 215), and I'm doing okay now. Currently sticking to a strict diet with about 5 grams of fiber.

I just found out it comes in a syrup form—does that actually change anything?

Thanks so much, really appreciate it 🙂

Will I feel like I'm choking, or will I get that awful sensation you get during a gastroscopy? Or does one just drift off to sleep?

What’s the deal with using Dormicum for anesthesia? My kid needs to undergo a gastroscopy under Dormicum via an IV in the arm.
What should I realistically expect? Is there a genuine chance they’ll just drift off, feel absolutely nothing, and have no memory of the whole thing?
