I have recently had a ct colonoscopy which showed up a polp so the following week I had a colonoscopy to remove it. The ct colonoscopy showed a thickening in my womb which will now be investigated. I am having a vaginal internal scan next week and a hysteroscopy the following week. Oh joy unlimited . I have coped so far but by the time I have the hysteroscopy I will have had 4 invasive procedures in 4 weeks Does anyone have experience of this procedure. The information sheet which came with the appointment letter advises taking pain killers in advance of the procedure. It says that I will be offered a local anaesthetic through injection into the cervix. It also states that 'the procedure can be stopped at any time'. It seems obvious that this is quite an unpleasant procedure. Has anyone experienced this? If so please could you give me an honest assessment of your experience. No need to sugar coat it if it was unpleasant. I will be better prepared if I know what to expect. Also I have heard that it is possible to request a general anaesthetic for the procedure so I would like to consider this in the light of others experiences. Thanks for any replies.
