I only had a small incision because the 'growth' was supposedly ten centimetres. It turned out to be five and a half pounds!!!

I was a serious runner at the time, with lots and lots of back pain. Suddenly no pain, no periods, no mood swings, no tampons...it truly was life-changing.

Of course you do worry as you sit waiting for your turn, but that little needle they pit on your wrist changes the ball game. Total relaxation.

Good luck. Look forward to hearing your recovery story. :)
