Hi again.
Following on from my first post - waiting for hysteroscopy. I had a call to say there was a cancellation for this morning if I would like it. Yes please!
Had the procedure and biopsies. It was more painful than I envisaged but I coped - just about.
Now it's just a waiting game for the results but the Consultant said he couldn't see any glaringly obvious abnormalities so I suppose thats one positive.
DiDee, I had an attempted hysteroscopy under local which my consultant decided to stop because of my pain levels - I wanted him to keep trying and to get it done but he said he didn’t want me to have a bad experience and faint/go into shock. I was extremely disappointed and burst into tears, especially at having to then wait a few weeks to have it done under general anaesthetic but when it finally happened, it was a breeze.
So sorry to hear of your bad experience and glad it all went well in the end. Have you had your results back? Hope there fine and your clear.x
Hi, it was three years ago this month - I was diagnosed with cancer, had a hysterectomy plus some adjuvant treatment in 2022 and, as far as I am aware, remain cancer free.
How many weeks did you wait for hysteroscopy under GA...I'm waiting for my appointment its been 6 weeks now and nothing yet? Thank you
Hi for me it was 5 weeks, but I was chasing it every week! Have you had your pre-op assessment yet?
Yes signed the pre-op papers,
I was supposed to have the hysteroscopy in August, but I asked doctor if possible to delay to September because I wanted another opinion from other doctor, after I had a MRI at private clinic and they confirmed that I have multiple polyps on cervix , adenomyosis and a cyst.. so the doctor from NHS referred me to have hysteroscopy polypectomy surgery....my referral has been sent on 25 July ...and since then noting...waiting but every day seems like a month
Been waiting since July...I had GP appointment last week because my period became even heavier and painful. She checked my cervix and could see the polyp
Feeling soo anxious as I'm only 36 and my symptoms cant let me have normal live pain, bleed after s.x , painful and heavy period..
and apparently my files probably lost after 5 months of waiting... GP made another request for urgent action as I was supposed to have Hysteroscopy &Polypectomy in September... really hope il get the right treatment ASAP
Finally alleluia, I have Surgery date 13th of Feb for polypectomy &hysteroscopy and implant fit. Hopefully everything goes well
