Hi Ladies,
I hope this is ok to post in this section as its the moat relevent but not due to a smear test.
I have been secretly scrolling through your forum for the past week and thought it time i introduce myself and get some help through the next few weeks.
I am 32 and a mum of 4 beautiful children 6, 2, 2 and 16weeks old.
I have never had an abnormal smear and always taken the opportunity to so my smear although my last was delayed by a few months due to being pregnant with my twins.
Following the birth of my youngest almost 4 months ago i had a normal period and then nothing. However, i was delayed in started the contraceptive pill (yasmin) as baby was in hospital for a week with suspected sepsis (thankfully not) so the doctor said just start the pill to regulate yourself.
Once protected i started to notice bleeding after sex one weekend so went to GP who looked and said my cervix was inflammed and looks suspect and abnormal so i am on am urgent referral.
I have cried ever since every time my babies look at me and ask me why i am crying i cry abit more i am so scared. Having lost my pwn mum at 43 that isnt helping.
The Gp doesnt think its a reaction to the pill as o have been on it for a number of years (various for over 20 years) and it would be rare to suddenly have a reaction however, i stopped the pill as i started to regularly spot without intercourse.
I have now been without my pill for 9 days and spotted, then period and now spotting again with continual cramps.
I am now so scared its cancer i cant think straight and my urgent appointment isnt for another 2 weeks.
Has anyone had these symptoms, whats it like at your urgent appointment at hospital?
My mum had a full hysterectomy at 35 but i dont know anything more than years of fertility issues.
I dont fear cancee because reading all your stories has given so much hope that i get through it if diagnosed. Its how it will impact my kids. I have some family support but i need to look after them, i am on mat leave and i would have to consider going on the sick when that finishes if this happens. As you can tell mu head is full of questions and worry.
Sorry if this sounds abit confusing or muffled
Thanks in advance
