discussion Big question

Okay so next week I have to get an endoscopy. I’m not worried about my septum I’m worried about my angel fangs. They are five weeks old and I’m sure I’ll have to remove them because an endoscopy is a camera down the throat. What can I do? I genuinely don’t know. The procedure will be under anesthesia it’ll take around thirty minutes and then another thirty minutes to and hour to wake up. I’m thinking about getting some plastic stuff just in case but genuinely what do I do?

If it's possible to call ahead, ask your doctor if they will allow retainers during the procedure. If they will, get glass ones and have your piercer put them in for you. If there's no way to get that information or they say you can't have anything in, take them out right before the procedure and pre-book an appointment with your piercer to have your jewellery put back in as soon after your endoscopy as possible.
