Well yesterday I had my endometrial biopsy, now I just have to wait for the results. I wasn't expecting to have the biopsy done there and then as the receptionist had phoned me the day before to ask if I could come in 15 minutes earlier as the consultant needed to get off to a meeting and I said that was fine, and by the way, would I be getting any tests or procedures done on my first visit? She said no, it was just a consultation and if the doctor thought I needed any tests then an appointment would be made for a later date.
So when he said he would do the biopsy straight away I was a bit taken aback and told him I wasn't expecting this. He said it was up to me, he could either do it now or make an appointment to come back in 2-3 weeks as a day surgery patient and have it done under general anaesthetic. I thought about it and decided to just go for it otherwise I would be spending the next 2-3 weeks worrying about it. The biopsy itself wasn't too bad (I'd heard horror stories) and he also removed a small polyp at the same time. It was a bit uncomfortable but not agonising and I'm glad I didn't chicken out and opt for a later date.
He said there is a 5% chance that it could be cancer, but in 95% of cases the results come back normal.
Keep everything crossed for me folks!
