Hi all,
This is my first time writing on a forum but I have decided to bite the bullet and see if anyone can help me.
I have been bleeding after intercourse since January this year but as stupid as this seems never thought anything of it. On the 12th May 2014 I decided to see the doctor and after an examination she said that she was sending me for a Colposcopy in a week and she also did some swabs to check for infection. At this point I was not worried as I totally expected that I would show as having a yeast infection and that would be the end of it. The day before the Colposcopy the results came back clear for infection which did surprise me and I started to worry.
At the Colposcopy the doctor informed me I have abnormal cells and has taken 2 or 3 biopsies (can’t remember the number sorry). The doctor informed me it would be 6 to 8 weeks for the results and then I would be called back in to discuss treatment.
So its now been nearly 2 weeks and I am worried. I know I’m probably very naive as I am only 28 and only had one smear back in 2011 which was clear (funny enough I have just received a letter informing I’m due my routine smear test), and I just want to know if anyone has had a similar experience. After reading up on everything I am now aware that bleeding after intercourse is a big symptom of cervical cancer and I would really appreciate if people can tell me what their thoughts are. I feel really in the dark and just want to know what I could be facing good or bad.
Hope this is ok and thank you for taking the time to read this.
