Upcoming hysterectomy: Biopsy after my no NSAIDS date
I'm scheduled for hysterectomy 10/5 and told no NSAIDS within 10 days (so after 9/24). I can't get in for my pre hysterectomy biopsy until 9/27. I've never had a biopsy so I have no idea what to expect but I've read to take ibuprofen ahead of the appointment. Since I won't be able to, will Tylenol help? Will I be in a lot of pain? Any suggestions for me? Thank so much!

Re: Biopsy after my no NSAIDS date
Hello,
I had I biopsy awhile before my hysterectomy. To tell you the truth I cannot remember if I took anything before or not. I felt only some strong cramping during the actual procedure and than afterward I felt fine. Best wishes.

Re: Biopsy after my no NSAIDS date
I took ibuprofen for my endometrial biopsy, which was performed several months before my surgery. I felt a sharp pain for about 30 seconds during the procedure then no real pain afterwards. From my discussions with others, the short sharp cramps pain during the procedure is what most recall - and many did not take ibuprofen. It's not pleasant, but it's gone in no time.
Good luck!

Re: Upcoming hysterectomy: Biopsy after my no NSAIDS date
Since you are a bit concerned, why not give your doctor a quick call and ask about taking Tylenol - or if you have any other options.
My procedures sort of stung and hurt a bit but it wasn't unbearable. I came home and ate pizza and watched movies.
Hugs and best of luck.

Upcoming hysterectomy: Biopsy after my no NSAIDS date
I wanted to come back and update for the next person that is looking for information about the same. I was SO nervous, heart racing, nervous poops, the whole bit. It was so much unwarranted. I felt barely a pinch. Had cramps for several hours after but less than my usual period or adeno cramps. I did end up taking 1 Tylenol (500 mg) last night. Bleeding stopped completely by morning. I can't believe how much energy I spent freaking out ahead of time.
