Hi daisybulq21,
I'm new to this as well but I had my LLETZ on Friday there and nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't know I was going to be getting it done but I was freaking out as it was being explained (too busy crying to pay attention).
It was a bit uncomfortable setting it all up which took the longest then one of the nurses distracted me by asking how long I had been married and before I even knew it the colposcopist said she was done. I didn't even think she had finished freezing the area never mind actually finished the treatment. I felt a bit dizzy after it just with all the shock and legs being up in the air but they sat with me and brought me juice and a biscuit until I felt well enough to leave.
I had taken the car as I didn't expect to be getting it done and I stayed in the cafe and had a coffee for a bit then drove home and felt fine. Sorry if it's too much info but I haven't bled really either-it more of a blood stained discharge and quite a bit so still need a pad but not heavy blood at all. And apart from the odd little pain it's not been sore at all. I was stocked up on painkillers and took them on Friday and yesterday but haven't needed any today at all.
I will keep you updated if anything changes but please try not to worry too much about it. You could take painkillers an hour before you go in like I did and honestly it's not as bad as expected.

hi clarence thankyou for the info has made me feel a lil better and i bet it was a shock especislly with no notice ive had a coloscopy done already so know the feeling of legs up ect i think you always prepare yourself for things t0 be much worse than they actually are sometimes this good beacsue when u have it done its a releif that it wasnt that bad well just have to wait to have this done think i would of preferred to have it there and then because we cant help but worry all the waiting that eats away at yah thanks again and hope you have a good recovery :)
If you are having a general anaesthetic you shouldn't drive after. If only a local you will be fine. Good luck x
