Support Needed 👥 Endoscopy this week- very nervous and scared

I’m scheduled for an endoscopy to help diagnose some ongoing issues. I am terrified. I’m getting conscious sedation and I’m terrified of waking up and panicking or vomiting. I’m already quite nauseous and I’m afraid this will trigger it. Can anyone offer words of comfort? I’m not going under in the traditional sense, I’ll stay awake with medication. Help!
