Hello, I'm 55 and haven't had period for just over 2 years, until two weeks ago when I started bleeding and it was exactly same as my periods, I even had tender breasts for days before which I'd already put down to my bra being tight due to lockdown weight gain! I had the cramps etc as with any period, and it stopped after 5 days, nothing since. GP ref to hospital but I ended up at hysteroscopy clinic where the consultant scared the hell out of me by saying I'd be given 4 injections into my cervix which wouldn't stop the procedure hurting but would avoid problems with my blood pressure - oh, and the 4 injections are extremely painful!! I wasn't prepared to have this done because I hadn't even had a TVU scan, so am booked in for that tomorrow, then back to hysteroscopy clinic next week for that if the scan suggests it is actually necessary. I sometimes have a little niggle low down on my left hand side which I've noticed since the period, and have convinced myself I have ovarian cancer :(It's all going round in my head of course, the ups and the downs. Just wanted to ask here whether ladies have generally found the sonographer at the TVU scan to be able to give some results immediately, or am I likely to have to wait? Also, would I be better if I have to have hysteroscopy, asking for no anaesthetic if that's the bit that hurts worse? I feel so wimpy but am thinking I might ask for GA - but then I and my family have to self isolate for 10 days before the op. Sorry I know I'm jumping ahead, but hey, that's what we do when faced with these things isn't it?!
