Thank you. Appointment over, had a TV u/s, consultant unsure of findings. Referred for MRI & hysteroscopy including biopsy. I’ve been advised a hysterectomy is possible (risks advised) however once the results are back a plan will be made going forward. Unsure if I have a polyp…. More waiting & never ending pain. At least the pain will be addressed by hysterectomy whatever the findings

Oh, that sounds like something to be going on with at least! The biopsy and mri should give them the answers they need to confirm if you do need a hysterectomy. You have been dealing with this pain for far too long, so I’m sure it would be a massive relief to have an end to that.

The pain is something else ..unbearable & I’m now prescribed morphine. Also spotting which is now my normal following ablation

Oh Aimee that must be so bad…despite all that I’ve been through with treatment and surgeries I have never had to be prescribed morphine.

I was prescribed co-codamol which didn't seem to help, it just made me constipated. I then tried the OraMorph I'd left hospital with and found that worked. At one time I was having 4 x 2.5ml spoonful's throughout the day with a 5ml spoon before bed. After I had 3 cycles of chemo I'd reduced to jut a 5ml spoonful before bed and I'm off completely now so I hadn't become addicted which I was pleased about.
I hope they manage to get something sorted soon and, as you say the hysterectomy will put and end to the pain.
Hugs, Barb xx
