Hi all,

Maybe this is one for the guys...i don't know if the procedure feels the same for both men and women...I have seen my urologist this morning and he wants to do a flexible cystoscopy (telescope into bladder) next week.
Even though he has explained the procedure and i believe it is routine i am absolutely terrified of what they may find, something going wrong or probably biggest fear...fealing pain. They are doing it with local anaesthetic gel. Reading through other people's posts i notice that some people have had this done. Can anybody offer any reassurement please..? I cannot believe that such a procedure could be without significant pain and at this moment i am unsure as to whether i can face going through with it.

Thanks in advance,

CW
