Polyp Removal And Ius Insertion W/ Collitis Posted: 04-27-06 18:05pm
Hello...My mum is having a small operation
tomorrow and will be put under anaesthetic
(i'm petrified of her going under as I am
a huge worrier and iv'e got it into my
head that she will die-i no thats bad of
me but I just love her so much)she is my
carer as well and she is my best friend
and my world.She is having a polyp removed
from her womb and at the same time she
will have an ius (mirena intrauterine
system)put in which is to lighten her very
heavy periods that she has had all her
life(my mum is 49)every one tells me she
will be fine and that the operation wont
take no longer than 30mins but i'm so so
so very frightened...Please can any one
help me and tell me how long the operation
will last and if there should be anything
to worry about.Other than the polyp she
has collitus,but apart from that she's
usualy fit and healthy and has gone under
anaesthetic befor when she was about 24
and that was to remove a tiny lump from
under her arm which wasn't anything
bad.Please do help me and write
back...Thank you very much...Jadexxx
