My GP referred me urgently in March due to post menopausal bleeding and pelvic pain. Had ultrasound which showed thickness of 6mm. Had an appointment with Gynae at the start of May where they could not carry out a pipelle biopsy due to scarring from an ablation 15 years ago. They did remove a polyp which came back as inflamed but nothing to worry about.
i got sent for an MRI which showed nothing concerning and referred for Hysteroscopy.
I had to attend the GP as the pelvic pain is getting quite persistent and some days are quite painful and resulted in having to take a couple of days off work. GP has prescribed Nefopam which helps but does not stop the pain. Only had a couple of spots of bleeding the last few months.
Had the Hysteroscopy on the 27th July and got the result letter last Friday which says it is non diagnostic due to insufficient sample and further biopsy is recommended
just looking for any advice as this has been going on for 6 months now and I have had no more communication from the hospital although I am in Scotland and aware there are long waiting lists. Has anyone else had pain like this whilst waiting? It is not anxiety as it wakes me up during the night as well.
