Has anyone had LLetz awake during their colposcopy? I'd like to know what to expect and I don't really want to return again just to have it done with a general anaesthetic.
I had this done a few years back and though not the most pleasant experience it was manageable. The area was numbed with an injection, probably the worst part and then you don't really feel anything. The nurses kept me talking and distracted and it was over fairly soon so I could go straight home. I've had a colonoscopy and gastroscopy since with sedation so would consider myself on the cautious side with pain so it is bearable.

Thanks I've had lots of surgeries and gastroscopies/colonoscopies. Sedation has no effect on me so it's either wide awake or GA for things and I wasn't sure what the pain level would be. Thanks.
