Smear

Back in 2021 I was diagnosed with hpv cells the highest grade I was given a lettz treatment and then called back for a second lettz treatment in December. I was told they were gone and would need a follow up smear 6 months later. I've had the smear today at the hospital but witching a couple of hours I've suffered the worst pain in my lower abdomen I've spoke to the hospital who have said to take pain killers and it will go away my worry is the pain pills are not lasting and I'm struggling to move or even sit up in a sitting position has anyone ever experienced this 

  • Hello there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear about the pain you are having and suggest if it is continuing you speak to the hospital or your GP so you can be assessed further.

    I'm afraid no one here can say why this has happened as there could be several reasons but it is important to speak to someone so you can be checked out if it is continuing and the pain killers are not helping.

    If you are unable to get hold of the hospital or GP call NHS 111 for advice.

    I hope you are feeling better soon

    Take care
