Tired of "healing"

This is mostly just a rant.... I had a Leep/Cone Biopsy (yes, both) on June 5th.  It hasn't been quite 2 weeks and I'm sooooooo tired of leaking fluid.  I know it's normal, but it's bothersome.  I can't remember the last time I wore a pad.  Probably in early high school when I first got my period.  My favorite time is in the morning when I've been laying down all night.  I guess the fluid builds up and then finally starts leaking out.  Sometimes, doesn't make it to the pad either.  

How long has it done this for most of you? I hear it's a month or so.  I go for my check up on Friday.  I'll ask again then, but I know the answer.

I had a cone biopsy/ cold knife/ and D&C done the last week of March of this year.

I "leaked" all types of stuff:  techno colored discharge, stuff that looked like coffee grounds, and very light bleeding, for almost a month.  Then it all cleared up....!!!!!!!

My only problem from that was the surgeons left a lesion they missed, and now I will have to have radiation & chemo to get rid of it !!!   Talk about sucking the big one......

But, I think your concerns are in the normal range, and imagine your Dr. will tell you the same at your follow up!

Good luck    :--)

Can I ask a question of Sonchine?  Why can't they just take that one out too via cone biopsy?  Why did they go all the way to the radi and chemo?  

Original poster, I had mine done today and I'm looking forward to the road you are on...yea me. But I guess getting rid of it will be worth it.  Now I will wait on pins and needles to ensure margins are clean and I'm just doing paps in the near future! 

Thank you again!  Cindy
