No. As an aside, when you are younger they may elect to put you into a twilight level of sedation.

And that is how I saw the inside of my own beating heart at 10 while I was tied down and essentially naked in front of like 10+ adults.

Oh, and the contrast dye momentarily made me feel like I was being burnt alive from the inside out.

My wife had this done when doing a biopsy, IIRC, and it scarred here / gave her PTSD for years..

She now insists on full sedation.

That's more than fair I'd say.
