I saw my doc yesterday and had a uterine biopsy (as part of my pre-op for the hysterectomy). I would never, ever, ever....never in a million years do that again without sedation.

I think I said every cuss word I knew, almost vomited, broke out in a sweat and thought I was going to faint.........and I had taken 2 vicodin an hour before the procedure.

The doc told me afterward.......when I could breath again and didn't think I would pass out........that most women don't have that type of pain from that procedure.

She said it confirmed her suspicions that my uterus was full of glandular tissue and why I have been experiencing pain and abnormal periods.

The reason for the biopsy was to test for cancerous tissue. She said that she has to know prior to the surgery, because the uterine removal would probably be a belly cut instead of a vaginal/laparoscopic procedure if cancer is found. I'm sure that part will turn out fine.

Surgery is June 19th........
