| Comment | I've had numbing injections for most of mine. Take painkillers beforehand and prepare for some pain but nothing too awful. It's a bit nippy pain-wise for me, first time getting it installed felt the worst and the quickest and most pain-free removal and re-insertion was done at Paisley when Sandyford appointments were unavailable due to Covid. Relaxing as much as you can makes it much less sore so try not to worry about it and practice relaxing everywhere and breathing slow and steady. I usually feel crampy the rest of the day afterwards but again nothing too horrendous, for me it's just unpleasant and thankfully it's only once every 5 years :) Good luck - you'll be fine x |
