It has been almost three weeks since my procedure and my scab fell off. When it fell off, a blood vessel was exposed. I had to get med evac by helicopter and a blood transfusion. I really thought I was going to die! It started off with me thinking that I was on my period heavy. Take my advice and go to the hospital immediatly!!!! Cmwill0 Sun, 06 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT Great Advice.  I had a pretty bad Leep experience and they had a hard time getting me to stop bleeding after the procedure.  I had heavy bleeding for about 2 weeks afterward.  I was very tired and probably should have gone to get it checked out, but I assumed it was also because I was having my cycle (which is always heavy as well).   Cathlena Sun, 06 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT I had nothing but complications after LEEP, which included nonstop discharge for two months, an infection, and physical discomfort until I began taking a product called DIM. I wish I had read information about the other three methods: cryosurgery, laser, and cold knife before I had the amputation done via LEEP. I would never have chosen that method because my body is susceptible to infections, and LEEP has the highest incidence of infection, compared to the other methods. I would have chosen laser. It's just as effective as LEEP. herenow Mon, 07 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT
