Getting Cryosurgery Tonight - Scared!

Hi all,


Well, its been a while since I last posted... The last procedure I had done was my first pap after my LEEP procedure, which came back abnormal, so they did yet another colposcopy which thankfully showed that it was only "chronic inflammation".  My doctor, however, decided that she wanted to treat this aggresively and do a cryosurgery anyway, just to avoid any future problems hopefully.  She said had I not had the LEEP procedure and all this abnormal history, she would've done the "watch and wait" thing, but not being the way things have been going for me. 


Anyway, tonight is my cryosurgery, and i'm reading mixed things about it.  I personally think the colposcopy is one of the most painful procedures i've ever had and I cringe everytime I think about it.  Some women i'm reading say that cryosurgery is not bad at all, and i've read some women say it is painful.  I'm just wondering what to expect and which is true?  Is it painful?  Because i'm going tonight after work and driving myself home (I have nobody available at home to take me).


Thanks

Jacki
