They will give me local anaesthesia

Hello,marie,I hope you will be ok ,hopefuly you will not suffer from any pain after it,keep in touch. Good luck.

I know you are scared sweety, perhaps you can call the doctor and ask to get a general anaesthesia instead of a local one, probably just what they usually give and unless otherwise directed they dont' give anything else, I am sure they will let you have a general, especially if you are that scared. I hope everything turns out okay, keep us apprised at what happens and know we care about you.

Try not to worry. It sounds like they are doing a biopsy to see what is going on. Just do what they tell you and go to your appointments and I am sure things will turn out okay...good luck.

I will keep you in my prayers, try not to be too afraid, they will give you something to calm your nerves and something so you dont feel pain, and it'll be over before you know it. I don't know, but it sounds like you are having a cone biopsy.

Marie, I had to have a part of my cervix removed a few years ago due to pre-cervical cancer. I can say it didn't hurt, more like after wards it was uncomfortable, but not painful. I can't even remember the shot they gave me to numb me. Just remember this isn't something to fear, not having it done is. Don’t get yourself all stress out over it sweetie, your taking care of yourself.

Hello marie. Just try to look at the brighter side. I can understand how scared and affected you are. Maybe it is just a simple case of cyst (looks like a small grape) which is quite common among women. Your boyfriend will be there to lend you support as well as my prayers for your impending operation.

if i were in your shoes, i would freak out, too. being in a surgery, no matter how good they make it sound to be okey, i will still feel so uneasy about the whole thing. so, you aren't ridiculous... you are just being true and being you. i just hope that things will be fine. and that as you said, the anesthesia will really knock you out so you won't be awake in all these. creepy! gosh. i am imagining it already. sorry. just be safe and hope everything will be okey. i know your boyfriend will be there for you. don't forget to update us. get well really soon marie! - anne

Hi There Marie, My name is Debbie and I know exactly how you feel. I was in an auto accident and had to have two surgeries and a (dont know the name of it ..long word), so dont feel bad, but I need another surgery and I have a heart condition called mitrovalve prolapse, any way I cant be put to sleep for too long for the fear as my doctor said in not so many words that I need another surgery and I have a chance of being paralized or not waking up. So my advice to you is local anaesthesia is really not that bad. It is better than being put to sleep and if I had a choice I would choose local but I have no choice that is why I am not doing this next surgery. So, hold your head up high, be brave, and think of good things like your family and that you will actually see them instead of wondering if your gonna see them or not. Pray, pray and pray, it really helps and when the time comes for your test think of all of the happy things in your life and that you will still have all those happy things. Remember it is normal to be afraid but think happy thoughts and I will be praying for u. If u need anything or need to talk I am here to listen(or as I should say AIM me or pm me) . My email address is lildlege@aol.com AIM: lildlege I also have myspace IM lildlege, so please feel free to ask me anything and I will be praying for u. Good luck and I know everything will be fine even though it doesnt seem like it right now. Your Friend, Debbie

I have had three eye surgeries and one lymph node biopsy with local anesthetic, you only feel pressure, no pain, seriously.I think you'll be just fine.

hey there buddy,you dont have to be afraid at all.be brave and i am sure you ll definitely overcome it.and do not worry the local anaeshthetic is only to make you not feel any pain.hope you get through this phase quickly buddy.all the best.

Sweetie, I know that you are scared....please try not to worry yourself so...the biopsy that they are taking will help them better understnd what is going on....it will be easier to face when you know for sure what you are dealing with....this does not mean that something is wrong....many women have had to go through this because something on their pap smear looked suspicious...or questionable....and many times it ends up that they just need a more frequent check up for a few months.... I know it is hard to go through this and I am praying for you everyday, Marie.....please know that you have a support system of friends here who deeply care and are concerned for you..... Take care....try not to panic, my friend.....
