Glad you have it all over and done with. I had one last year but was never told to bring anything ,I just put on a hospital gown and I was wheeled down to the theatre on a bed, and just shuffled over to the table. Had IV sedation , which worked a treat. Enjoyed the tea and toast afterwards too .

Really stupid question but been told to bring pyjamas and dressing gown for colonoscopy. As I only wear t shirts in bed I bought anew pair of pyjamas yesterday. Just tried them on and you can see my nipples through the slightly clingy material. Will I be keeping my dressing gown on all the time, and then be given a gown for the procedure.
I know this is a trivial question but I'm a bit self conscious about this kind of thing 
Wheeled down, crikey clementine did you go private? Most hospitals are cutting down on staff, laundry, disposable gowns, and most of all cash. Hence request to bring own dressing gowns etc. It's not a sterile procedure after all.
They'll soon be asking volunteers to train to do procedures
