Surgical vacuum vs abortion pill

Hi everyone.

I'm looking for experiences really of the surgical vacuum abortion under sedation with local anaesthetic vs the pills.

I'm booked in for pills but have to have my iron checked first, I have an issue with this. My vaso vagal nerve is also trigger with pain so my blood pressure plummets so I'm a bit concerned about doing this at home and the dragged out process.

I'm considering the vacuum now BUT I'm petrified of the local anaesthetic injection into the cervix as I've heard it's painful. Can I have people's honest experiences of this whilst under sedation (not general anaesthetic). This is through BPAS.

I will be 6 weeks.
Thank you xx
