Someone I know is having one tomorrow and wanted to know if it would have an after effect of any kind and would they be ok to go to work the following day.

I should think they’ll be fine to work tomorrow. They give you light sedation but this wears off quite quickly. My 94 year old Dad had a bronchoscopy and he was eating a steak and kidney pud within an hour of being home. No ill effects whatsoever.

Sorry, not tomorrow. The day after.
