I hope they can confidently remove all the cells that are abnormal and that this will no longer be a problem for you in the future. Lots of hugs.
was it called a LEEP? my mom had about ten of those before she finally got approved for a hysterectomy. she also said it was just the worst thing ever.

Re: procedure tomorrow


sorry all, the day of the procedure my computer died.
procedure in itself didn't hurt. the cramping did. it hurt to bend over or lift anything that would stiffen my stomach area at all (uterus contracting).
strange thing is the tissue is supposed to um..."leave me" *sorry, kinda gross, didn't know how to word it* and well...nothing's happened yet. i just found that odd because she warned me how it might look bloody and then nothing. hmm..maybe it happens later for some people? i don't know..
thanks for the wishes/thoughts. i did alright. i just hated going to two more appointments after for testing on other issues. was not really in the mood, just wanted to curl up on the couch.

Re: procedure tomorrow


*hugs* Tink, awful stuff to have to go through Give yourself some kudos tho, you DID do it even tho you really didn't want to and sometimes it's far easier to bury your head in the sand and you didn't

**Sorry guys, look away**
The Uterus cramping thing is just awful when you go from nothing to the worst period pains *ever* in 5 seconds flat. I had that when I had to have a hormone coil (IUD) put in to treat PCOS and having never had kids *OUCH*.
**ok you can look again now guys**

You did great Tink *hugs*
