Endoscopy

I have to go into hospital for the afternoon on Friday to have an endoscopy done, (small camera passed down my throat into the stomach)

I am being given the choice to have a local throat spray anaesthetic or sedation. I am thinking more on the lines of the throat spray.

I am just wondering if anyone else has had one and what choice of anaesthetic you chose to have and was it all ok?
I am feeling a little apprehensive.
They are doing it because my GP seems to think either my liver or my pancreas isn't working properly.

Thank you
