No. Patient is sedated. Probably the most uncomfortable part is the night before when you have to drink the barium(?) that makes you spend the night on the toilet. You have to clean out your system the night before the test and it can be a long night on the throne. Put me to sleep and wake me when you're done please. It is a really good thing to have this test done as you get older.
