I no I’ve been talking a lot about the diagnostic laparoscopy. Mine is coming up so fast it’s Tuesday I’m starting to feel very very scared now and not sleeping at night feel exhausted !

Anyone who has had it done please can you reassure me that it’s not as bad as I’m picturing it xx

Hey, I was exactly the same before mine. I had mine last Friday and the worst bit is definitely that waiting! I was surprised with how well I recovered afterwards, I was worried about the pain and anaesthetic making me sick but I had no nausea or sickness and the pain was really well controlled by the amazing nurses! Honestly, the nurses and staff at the hospital will make sure you’re okay and you’ll be in good hands. Any questions feel free to ask but the worst bit for me was definitely the days leading up to it because I was so worried! Xxx
