I had a hysteroscopy on Friday, 2 days ago, and like the other posts on here, found it excruciatingly painful. The staff were all lovely, I had gas and air, and had taken the recommended ibuprofen and paracetamols beforehand. None of it masked the pain, and I was very faint immediately after. The leaflet said I would be back to normal within hours, so I struggled in to work yesterday, and somehow got through the day. I had to go to bed as soon as I got home. I just wish the leaflet was a bit more honest. I felt so bad last night, that I was crying in bed! It was a relief to read these posts and realise that I am not a wimp. I had always thought I can tolerate pain well, and I've had 4 normal deliveries - but that hysteroscopy was something else.- Posted
