music to have invasive procedures by
Researchers have discovered that listening to your favorite music during a colonoscopy can make it less, err, unnerving.
So what would you choose to listen to while having a scope inserted into your colon by way of your anus?
Comments
Probably not NIN...or Barry White.

Unfortunately, I might need to know this soon...
Is someone keeping a list? (I'm nixing Dorkafork's suggestion.)

I had the drugs. No problems, other than the fact that I didn't get to watch the monitor.
I'm told I was fairly hilarious before the drugs wore off.

Had two. The first was under some sort of sedative and I remember it being mildly uncomfortable.
The second time they must have given me the date rape drug. I was witing for them to start, but it was already over.

I believe the Doors' "Back Door Man" would be the patently obvious choice for the physician to be singing to the patient.

wheels and mark d., you must have been given Versed, a fabulous drug for procedures that are painful.
You're not knocked out, but are conscious....however, one doctor told me that it tends to make patients rather gabby and say the most amazing things; the types of things you don't usually talk about to strangers.

Well I would choose something calm and relaxing like Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony. But I've seen Soylent Green and the bastards have ruined it for me.

I've had it done twice.
The first time, it was a combination endoscopy (down the throat) followed by colonoscopy. They changed the scope, spun the table around, and into act 2 I went.
I chose to try the endoscopy without drugs. They had a nurse holding down my head saying soothing things into my ear. After that, I told them to give me something for the colonoscopy. I vaguely remember telling the nurse that she had a soothing voice and should do massage therapy ...
The second time it was just a colonoscopy, and I had them shoot me before it started. Much better.
