I am due to have a hysteroscopy and, needless to say, I am not exactly looking forward to this procedure. The letter sent from my local nhs hospital talks of 'pain and discomfort'. Localised pain killer injection into the cervix. I am assured that 'the procedure can be stopped at any time'. Please can anyone tell me of their experiences of this procedure? Please don't sugar coat it if it wasn't very pleasant. I would much rather hear the truth so I can be prepared. Thank you.
