Hi Redsmum, sorry to hear you are feeling so anxious. I had mine a few weeks ago, and it was over and done in less than a minute. I know it’s easier said than done but try not to worry too much. Maybe your body was so tense the last, so try and relax your body and see if that makes it easier/less uncomfortable for the test to be done. Hope it goes well.

Hi ladies, i’ve done it and it was far less painful than before, apparently there are different size instruments they can use which i was not aware of previously, it was over in seconds, feel stupid getting myself in such a state. Mrs Stress ed how is your husband will he be home today, how are you feeling about it all, hope you are coping, hugs to you.

So pleased about your husband. Yes nurse told me there are 6 different sizes (who knew) it definitely isn’t one size fits all as i was always led to believe. We live & learn! Take care

Glad you had it done, and was a lot less stressful than last time!
