Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Hi Ally- This is , your fellow November surgery buddy. I had a saline u/s last week--my second one ( I had one pre-surgery as well). It's probably different for everyone, but I have found it's not too bad. They insert a tube, fill your cavity with saline (this may feel a little crampy, depending on how much they have to put in to see your cavity well). Then they put in the ultrasound probe and move it around (a little or a lot, depending on how easy it is to see what they want to see). But overall, the pain level should be manageable, and it can be interesting/helpful to focus on the u/s screen and ask questions while they do it--to keep your mind focused on the info. and sight of your uterine cavity--kind of fascinating I thought. Anyway, you might have a little spotting afterward, so it's a good idea to wear a pad when you are done. You can also ask to take copies of a photo or two with you. Good luck---let me/us know how it goes.... , 36 SU with " dimple/dip " resected 11-15-04 In a message dated 12/28/2004 9:52:30 AM Eastern Standard Time, " AllyLaw " writes: > > >I had my resection surgery in Nov. 2004 and I had my post-op last >week.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 I forgot to say---take a couple of Advil before your Saline u/s for the cramping (which should be pretty mild anyway) In a message dated 12/28/2004 9:52:30 AM Eastern Standard Time, " AllyLaw " writes: > > >I had my resection surgery in Nov. 2004 and I had my post-op last >week.
