Hi everyone. I'm 5 weeks out of treatment and trying to get my surveillance scopes done. Gag reflexes run strong in my family and the 2 doctors I've seen since treatment is finished, I haven't been able to let them get the scope more than an inch or two in my nose before I start gagging and pulling my head away. My doctor today recommended I get some anxiety meds from my primary doctor and be referred to a cognitive therapist to try and find a way to cope with the scoping. I was just wondering how you all handle getting scoped. I'm in for a long road if I can't find a way to deal with this, especially knowing how often I'll need to be scoped.
