HSG: This is my second answer, maybe more helpful. With all my heart I am sorry about your anxiety, but be honest: you are over-reacting. Ga for an hsg is much riskier than hsg itself, it is inappropriate. If you are that frightened you call your doc, reschedule procedure, and address these worries beforehand. I've done over 2000 hsg myseff in 20 years, with never a bad outcome. Best wishes.
