Painful hysteroscopy
Community PostI had this procedure earlier today. I feel really low and want to cry all the time. Think it’s shock. Take paracetamol they said beforehand. No way did that cover it. The most painful procedure I have ever had and I think I have a high pain tolerance. I found the speculum insertion and internal scan painful let alone what followed. Several biopsies taken as I have a strange shaped uterus and then a camera inserted for a look around. Once the consultant started I just wanted it over with, gritted my teeth and moaned and panted throughout. Feel sorry for the person waiting for their turn outside the procedure room. No way would I consent for this again without any form of anaesthetic and would advise others against it too - was certainly not told I could opt out and have any other pain relief/general anaesthetic. Horrendous experience. Never again - they’ll have to knock me out.
