I had a biopsy for cervical cancer Thursday.?

should they have given me an local anastetic before they did this procedure. it was one of the most painfull experiances of my life. sorry if this sounds gross,but am also losing large clumps of blood. im in absolute agony,and have came close to collapsing with the pain on several occasions. please can any one help. friendly advice only please. cervival cancer is not a funny matter at all. have been told that they are going to be putting me to sleep under a general anastetic for the next procedure that i have to have done. please help. am terrified

You poor thing, that is such a painful experience, and the worry is just as bad. I believe they should have numbed your cervix before taking the biopsy, and you are certainly justified in complaining about it. I also think you should call the surgery and let them know about your pain and bleeding, as you might have an infection. Better to be safe, than sorry, and go back for a checkup. Good luck, and try not to worry.

I would think they should have given you a little something before doing a biopsy! But since you're in so much pain and losing blood/clots, I'd personally have somebody take you to the ER immediately. You shouldn't be having these symptoms after a cervical biopsy. If you had a D&C, perhaps; but not with just a biopsy of your cervix. I really urge you to go to the ER!

Best of luck, and I hope all is alright <3
I think you should have had a local anaesthetic in your cervix. I had a loop excision for grade 3 dyskariosis and I'm sure my cervix was anaesthetised. It was quite painful and I bled for 21 days, but there were certainly no clumps or clots. If you are experiencing clots then I would most certainly get in touch with your gynaecologist/doctor as this doesn't sound right. Telephone the hospital and ask to speak to one of the gynae nurses or doctors and they will advise you better. All the best.
if you've had a comb biopsy that is not very nice but if you have to have the next operation you will be asleep but the recovery for this operation take along time you must rest properly and not lift or strain yourself at all my wife had this operation 15 years ago and she is fine now tell yourself no matter how terrified you are this operation is going to make you better. good luck with the future.
Hi i had one myself a few weeks ago and i was exactly the same. I found it to be the most horrendous thing that i have ever experienced. I didn't have any blood clots though so i would urge you to go to the doctors and get it checked out. I had a loop diathermy last week and although am still sore now the actual process was nothing like the biopsy. Don't worry about your treatment believe me the biopsy was the worst experience.
Hi I had the same procedure done a few weeks ago and no they do not use a local anaesthetic. I personally hardly felt any pain at all so I think this varies dependant on the individual. I would definitely go back to your doctor about the bleeding as from what I was told this is not to be expected.

When the biopsy results came I then had to have treatment to remove the abnormal cells. There are a number of different ways this can be done but the most common is the Large Loop Excision of the Transformation Zone (LLETZ), also called Loop Electro-Excision Procedure (LEEP). Check out this website is really informative.

For this procedure I was given a local anaesthetic but dependent on how big the area is they need to treat or where this area is you may be given a general anaesthetic.

I wont lie and yes the injections did hurt a bit but the treatment itself was painless a little uncomfortable, but painless and I felt totally fine about an hour later and was free to go home. My friend had the same but under general anaesthetic and she stayed in hospital over night and did feel a bit yuk for a day or so but nothing really bad.

Please don't panic, I know this is a frightening thing to have to go through but trust the doctors and ask as many questions as you can. This is unpleasant yes, but it's far better than the alternative.

I wish you luck :) take care and I'm sure everything will be fine.
No I had two biopsies did on my cervix and I didn't have any antithetic. One hurt more then the other but it wasn't that bad, maybe your pain tolerance is low. The second one they are talking about is a cone biopsy were they remove all the bad cells, which yes they would give you antithetic for that. My first biopsies came back abnormal, so they first waited six months to see if they changed any more. I just had my six month pap to check again and everything was fine. So, don't stress to much it might just be nothing.
