Hysteroscopy experiences AT MAYO specifically

Victoria,
Were you given an rx for misoprostol and asked to insert it vaginally the night prior to your biopsy? They had me do that, it is supposed to soften the cervix. Well it did not work for me, when I got home I looked up the drugs they provided and found that misoprostol only works for pre-menopausal women, it actually makes the procedure more painful for post menopausal women. Needless to say the confidence in my Dr has seriously declined.

No they didnt give me anything like that but she did give me a local freezing . Also i had taken an Ativan and Tylenol . So it wasn’t as bad as the one I had 40 years ago .. it took her three try’s before she could get it ..
What we have to go through !
I think the next time this happens i will go under its not worth the anxiety and pain .. cheers merry xmas from Canada !!
