So I am 2+ years into menopause, no hrt, etc. Spotted for a few days so of course I called my doctor. Fast forward, I have a thickened lining (12mm) and am now scheduled for hysteroscopy with D &C.

My health anxiety has kicked into overdrive. I am terrified. I know the doctor is looking for something-very scared of what they may find. I’m afraid to go under general anesthesia. The fear consumes my every thought of each day. It’s robbing me of my life-I’m stuck in my bed. I wish I had a better way of coping with this. So many people live with unanswered questions; yet they manage in the meantime to go to work, live life, etc. I wish that could be me.
