[quote=Anonymous]OP, I find that the physical stuff is less of an issue than I thought--but if I started feeling that I would be taking a Valium before each procedure, even an ultrasound. I always avoided anti-D meds and the stronger anti-anxiety ones (SSRIs don't work for me) but having Valium on hand has been a godsend in the worst moments. Luckily it seems I don't have any tendency toward addiction. Some women like Xanax, some take Klonopin--having something you can take on an episodic basis, like, just before you have people up in your ladyparts, may help you get past this so you can get through it and to the other side sooner. One comfort for me is that though it was a lot of strangers for the RE stuff, for each pregnancy (3 m/cs) it's been ONLY my OB. And if it's not her it's going to be one of her partners. And NO WAY will I be in a teaching hospital where students or residents will be there. [/quote]
