Egg collection - local anaesthetic.

Currently into stims, scan on Thursday to firm up date for egg collection. Clinic offered me a general or local option. I decided on local as didn't fancy a general. Now have the fear of god, apparently I just get panadine extra and the green whistle (strong painkillers and an option for an even strong pain killer taken orally) ..... oh fuck, what have I done, has anyone gone for the local option?

@itseasierstill thanks for the words of encouragement 😊The collection is tomorrow and feeling quite bloated now so looking forward to getting it done. The clinic also said I should take Saturday off work so I will do.
Hope all is going well for you X
