Hi Lorla.Please don't worry.I've had both these procedures and the lap and dye was better than the Hysterosalpingogram (sp?) because you are asleep! I found the other test quite painful but apparently my tubes shut down as soon as the dye went into them and they gave me a second injection to open them.I was a little sore after the lap and dye but not for long.I wish you lots of luck with everything.I know how upsetting it can be but there is so much that can be done.I'm sure all will work out for you.Take care.
