I underwent an extremely painful endometrial biopsy at an outpatient appointment when I was just expecting a transvaginal ultrasound scan. At no point was I given any information, pain relief or follow up advice. I had to attend OOH following my phone call to 111 for advice about intense pains akin to labour contractions and passing a large clot. I have now had 2 further emergency GP appointments, a vaginal swab and now need a ultrasound scan. At no point was I asked to consent to this procedure. I have made a written complaint which I will attach. I’ve cancelled a follow up appointment with the consultant due to his poor communication and my lack of trust. My letter of complaint has been acknowledged and I am being transferred to a different hospital and consultant- Posted
