I'm having a repeat endoscopy and they require someone meet me afterwards and walk me out. The whole thing is very silly but they require it. I had a friend meet me last time but she has to work and I don't really like imposing on people who would have to take off work to do so.
Is there a way to hire someone for like $50 to meet me after my procedure? It would literally take like 15 minutes.
Also if you're local, join the nextdoor app and maybe you can find someone in your neighborhood without the markup of the taskrabbit or thumbtack sites.
Gotta Love it.
Accompanying my friend for a Colonoscopy.
He gets a letter in the mail that the person accompanying must show proof of being Covid Free.
Another option is PRC testing which requires to take test 72 hours prior
to your procedure but results ridiculously take 72 hours to get? Whhaaaaaaaat? I call that Useless.
Only choice is Walk into a government run 24 hour emergency clinic where rapid testing is free or
a private 24 hour facility.......which will cost around $180 bucks for someone to stick two swabs up your nose
if not covered by your insurance and receive a confirmation letter to present to the admin saying you are O.K.

Time to buy stocks in Medical...................
Is this what they mean by inflation ? I'd consider that an A.......oh never mind we get used to it don't we ?
This will mutate into a pandemic of your wallet.....
If you have the colonoscopy without an anesthetic (like Propofol) or Versed ( a sedative) you can drive home. I usually don't take anything for the procedure but the last time I had a colonoscopy it really hurt. There are certain bends in the colon where it's difficult to pass a colonoscope.
On the other hand, you can watch the procedure on the monitor and see the insides of your gut.

Would recommend only a general anesthetic ( knocked out ).
Anything less is comparable to being skewered and dropped onto a hot barbecue.
