I also have not seen any research that indicates there is a higher risk of traumatic injuries during a colonoscopy with patients who are awake.
One point in favor of anaesthesia is that some people apparently have very "twisty" intestines that are difficult to navigate, which I guess you don't know till the first time you try it. I didn't have that problem. This discussion really has me convinced that I want to go back to the guy who worked without anaesthesia- but I'm not due for a couple more years.
