I have no recollection of the events (sm)

In Reply to: Conscious sedation? - Kim

when I had conscious sedation for my colonoscopy, but evidently I was writhing so much they stopped it and had me reschedule for it under IV sedation.

I was informed that it was not safe to perform it if the patient moved around too much, especially due to pain.

If no recollection of trauma, possibly could be gout, although
that usually occurs in the great toe. However, anything is possible.

Does anyone know how to find out about scheduled events SM
that I could attend this summer like you see on Animal Planet? There are the frisby competitions, agility events, etc. I would just love to take a chair out, sit back and enjoy the day watching these beautiful athletes in action!!! I would even take a few days off and drive to a larger event. Thanks for any help!
