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 !! 

hi soobyso mine was also really painful im waiting on results im just hoping they had enough sample otherwise it means having it done again under  ga  .x

I had a uterine biopsy on Tuesday, it was really painful and I think I’m still in shock from it. Pain in lower back seems worse 4 days later. Consultant seem confident it was a polyp but was concerned the sample she took wasn’t what she expected, said it was breaking up - expected it to be more solid. Now I have to wait nearly 3 weeks for results. Going to be a long 3 weeks. 

Fingers crossed for you. x

Thank you x

its been 3 weeks since i had my hysteroscopy and as yet no results i just want to know whats going to happen nxt i hate waiting for results to come back as most people do.

Hi Murray71

how did your results go?

i had my second Hysteroscopy and D&C today. I've been told I'll have the results in 2 weeks and I can't understand why it takes so long. I went privately.

my consultant also said she suspects the cells are still hyperplastic because the lining was so thick BUT I've been on Norethisterone which has stopped me having a period for the last few months so of course it was going to be thick!!! I'm feeling very confused and worried now 

I have just had hysterectopy on 6th Jan, polyp removed and D/C as womb lining thickened. It's been 2 weeks and still nothing. Is no news good news?

thanks Nikke

Hi All,

I found this thread online .

I am 43 yrs old the very produd mother of a 21,18 and 16 year old and grateful wife to my ever suffering husaband of nearly 25 years.

I have always had very regular periods, until the last 6 months where I have been bleeding for FOUR MONTHS continiously.  

Following scans and appointments my consultant saw that my endometrium lining is very thick and I have a few polps

Last Tuesday I had the recommended endometiral abalation, poly removal and biopsies.  Fortunatley I had them all under general and I am now home recovering for the next week.

Again I have been told that I will need to wait for 10 days for the results of the biopsies but the waiting is nerve racking.  The options if it its cancer is to have a hysterectomy as our family is complete however the waiting is killing me.

There is a history of colon cancer in my mothers side which I guess is making me even more nervous..

Just wanted to share my thoughts.   I wish all well and would be great to speak to ladies in similiar situations as no matter how supportive friends and family are they just dont get it  X

Hi I am also a mother to 3 aged 19,18 and 14 ..I am 43 always had heavy periods and have endometriosis but recently have suffered such bad bleeding i cannot literally leave the loo! Went to docs who gave me progesterone tablets which slowed it down and she referred me for scan.Scan showed a polyp and fibriod 5 months later I eventually got an appointment to see a consultant at hospital who referred me for a biopsy and camera.I had that done today and the consultant said he would try and fit a mirena coil too. After looking he said the front of my womb was very lumpy so he decided against the coil and after seeing the lady stood next to me facial expressions it terrified me! Obviously now i just have to wait which is the worst.I do not have a very supportive partner he is not very sympathetic at all! All very scary! Good luck to all you ladies going through the same thing x
