I have recently discovered completely by accident dark patches on my inner labia. I was having a smear the same day and the nurse said it's just age and hormones as I am going through the menopause. I googled and wasn't happy with this so got an urgent appointment to ask for a referral I was told it could be a year. I bit the bullet and went private and was told its absolutely not hormonal and i need urgent biopsies. My issue is I am paying for this and I honestly can't afford it. I am terrified of getting my biopsies but also now if its bad news am I going to sit on a NHS waitlist for so long I could die. I'm so worried
