hi ladies
some of you may know that I had treatment for 2b cc last year/early this year and had 25 radi sessions, 6 cisplatin sessions and 19 hours of pulsed rate brachytherapy ( my tumour was 6.8cm and a swelled lymph node but they werent sure if it was live so they zapped it anyway)at my first scan at 3 months I had what the dr said was a complete result - a normal scan and he was very encouraged by it.
then my 6 month peek at the cervix and a bit of feeling around , again my dr was saying all looked as it should.
i voiced my concerns that I was still getting a bit of discharge, even after 6 months, but she said not to be concerned as all looked well
i dilate quite regularly now, at least twice a week with no problems , if l leave it any longer I do get a bit of pink residue , but mainly it’s absolutely fine.
anyway, this Saturday, I dilated as normal and when I took the dilator out (I apaologise in advance for the following!) I had this slimy gel on the dilator , consistancy mucus when you get a cold and sort of slightly beige coloured.
iI ras a bit freaked out so I wiggled the pink peril inside again and there was a bit more on the dilator. - no smell whatsoever I add.
ive had nothing since and I’ve had a discharge all the way through since treatment so I’m not concerned about that as the dr wasn’t at my last appointment
im due my 9 month checkup on 5th November , and now I don’t know whether to speak to her then or phone tomorrow.
the other thing that worries me is that I’ve not had any scans since my 3 month post treatment checkup.
how oftetn do you have scans as well?
sorry about the long post but just wanting a bit of advice xx
