Are you really sure you want to be awake during a colonoscopy? Most of the people who wake up accidentally are scarred for life. I was drugged during mine, and I am quite happy about that.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  Yes there are doctors out there that will preform a colonoscopy without sedation.  You need to call around and find a doctor willing to do this.
