Hi everyone! Just a quick overview of this year... I am 26 & I had my first smear in February. The results came back borderline. I was called for a colposcopy in November and as it had been over 6 months since my last smear, the nurse did another smear and said she thinks it looked like i'd went from borderline to CIN1 within that time so a biopsy was carried out there and then. Not even a week later, I got a letter to say that it was actually CIN3. Naturally, it worried me the difference 6 months had made to my results. Last Friday I went for another colposcopy where I had the cells removed. I was expecting bleeding as i bled so bad after my biopsy and wasn't even fit to drive home. I didn't bleed at all with the loop and with a few paracetomal i felt well enough to go and do some christmas shopping. All i experienced was the cramps. Exactly a week later while in work, i went to the toilet to find I was bleeding, very bright red and had starting cramping again. This panicked me as I hadn't bled at all. I rang a & e when I got home and the nurse said it was probably an infection. She at first said it could be my period but I explained I was on the pill and that I had took it every day so it definitely wasn't so she gave me an antiobotic. I have literally slept all weekend and feel flu-ey if that makes sense. I am not bleeding as bad as Friday but I am still bleeding. Has anyone else had an experience like this? Thanks for reading my essay! Clare xx

Hi, due to nurse saying she thinks it's an infection, and you are feeling flu symptoms I think you should get checked out by a Dr soonish. Please ring 111 for advice. Hope yoi get sorted and please let us know how you get on xx
Hi, My LLETZ was just under 3 weeks ago and i was under the impression that if you were infected it would smell badly and/or going though pads more than hourly. I see everyone is different in the amount they leak and the colours etc. I started leaking from day1 and havent stopped yet but its been a variety of colour and amount has varied but so far no smells and not too often so im just letting it run its course. If worried i was given the phone number for the colposcopy unit i was seen at maybe call yours?
hope this helps x
Hey thanks for your replies, I am ringing my doc in the morning, they are going to take a swab, i will post any updates. Xx
