I'm scared for D&C - 1st surgery at 47
| Fri, 12-12-2008 - 4:14pm |
Hi Guys, I'm scared. I'm getting a D&C on Tuesday to get large polyp out of my uterus. I'm so scared it's not funny. Should I be?? I really like my gyno which is a good thing. I get panic attacks for many years and I'm so scared to get one waiting to get my surgery. I'm scared to get wheeled in the OR. Gee Whiz, I'm a mess. Should I be scared and nervous for next week? My gyno said it will take an hour or so to get the polyp out because it's large. Why couldn't I have a small one which takes less than 1/2 hour. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank u in advance. Laura/NJ Having children never worked out for me. Is it that I have a polyp because I didn't have children to get cleaned out at pregnancy????

I promise you that you will be fine.
Thank you so much for answering me about the D&C........I really appreciate it.
Hi there,
This board isn't particularly fast moving at the moment, particularly with the holiday season coming up. Anyway, D&Cs are so commonly done these days that they are considered a relatively minor surgery. How did you get on with it?
