I'm glad recovery is going well!  

I stopped taking BCP a few months ago to see if that would help with my copper issue.  If it does, and I have to stay off BCP, I'm going to be begging my doc for ablation.  My periods are horrible :(

I had it years ago, long before WLS.  It was smooth sailing all the way - up and about the next day, no problems.  So, so thankful I had it done.  It solved the problems I was experiencing.

I had it done about 10 years ago. I felt like bad cramps but the heating pad and sleep when I got home worked wonders. The next day or two it just felt like mild cramping. The mild cramping was worth it. You'll do fine.

Carpe Diem!

My Dr gave me a choice of the hospital or the Dr's office.  I didn't want to get put to sleep so I chose the office.  They gave me some pain pills and stuff before the procedure to take. It felt like extreme labor pains but it only was about a 8 minute procedure and I was awake the whole time. Right after the procedure, all I felt was cramps. I had this done probably 6-7 years ago and I would definitely do it again.  In the beginning my period was literally only one day and one little spot.  Now, I do have about a 5 day, very light cycle. Went from Useing super plus tampax to wearing only a panty liner. Some cycles I really don't need to wear anything.
