they put me out with propofol only.

in all my previous colonoscopies, they always gave me propofol, versed, and fentanyl.

it was pretty much the same. i went to sleep and don't remember anything of the procedure from the point of falling asleep.

recovery time was shorter, so seems better all around this way.

for me, anyway.
