Waiting for biopsy results - Uterine Cancer

I have just started the agonising wait for results. Had a hysteroscopy on Saturday and was told it should be 2 weeks. I am quite a strong person but this is going to be hard. Of course I know that it could be fine but I went to my GP in January and it is now April. Even if the results are clear I still have to have all the polyps removed under a 'general'.

  • Had 1 today, n was in severe pain all the way through, they say it should be painless, yet I'd got two nurses fanning me with bedpans as I'd gone pure white n was sweating because of the pain I was in, I'm dreading my results but not because of their outcome, because I'm absolutely terrified of having a procedure like that done again, my doctor said I'd had aneasetic, but I felt that much pain surely it should of been stopped as that's what you quote ? I'd rather them operate to remove anything they find, than to go through that again. Am I the only 1 who feels this bad ?

  • I had one on Monday awake, the consultant wasn’t that happy I was not having a general . The booking clerk mistakenly gave me the option and as it was sooner I had a local . It was absolute agony, I actually screamed out loud a few times ! I have had three babies and it was worse than that . The bit where he took the biospy was awful plus I was aware not to move to much as I didn’t want a perforation to happen .

    worrying about my results now as the consultant adviced me there and then to have the coil as my uterus was so thick !! 

  • had hysteroscopy and D&C yesterday under GA, pain kicked in early morning. Very sore. Can’t believe you had to suffer like that. Get results in 3 weeks. Fingers crossed for all of us still waiting. I was told no heavy lifting.
