Going to be intubated this morning. Really nervous. Haven't been able to sleep. Please send me some good luck prayers or good vibes?

I think I am so nervous because the aftereffects of an endoscopy are severe discomfort for several days, and the worst of it is a sore throat and gastric pain. I hate sore throats.

ANY good vibes or prayers would be much appreciated.

I had an endoscopy last December. I’ve had several of them over the years and have never experienced a sore throat or anything like you mentioned.

@Mardrae Well, I made the mistake of looking up the aftereffects online. Bought all sorts of sore throat lozenges, and sore throat spray and of course, when I got in there, they said, "No, you won't have a sore throat." NONE of what I read online was true.
