I don't think they put you under general anesthesia for the procedure...

Edit: Apparently I don't know shit. failure

They do if you ask for it

Is it even traumatic?

Of all the medical invasive medical procedures one can have, a colonoscopy sounds the least scary. My only real concern would be the awkwardness of having a room of people all taking mental notes about how much ass hair I have.

I've gotten a gastroscopy without anesthesia and i do not recommend it. It's like swallowing a huge-ass branch, it sucks. From all i know, colonoscopy is worse. They do short term anesthesia with propofol for this stuff, it's much easier to recover from than the general anesthesia you'd get for a surgery.
