Hi Juliaboo2 I'm not available to answer your injection question but I remember feeling worried about dying during the hysterectomy when I was waiting for mine. It's understandable to be worried and I wondered if you have visited the Hysterectomy UK site? They have a forum which I found to be very helpful.

You'll be well supported on here.  :hug:

There is a Monthly Club on the hysterectomy forum where you can chat with women having the op at the same time as you. It's good to be able to share with others who are at the same stage as you.
