Hi,
I’ve had HPV for 2 years but with normal cells. my last smear was in October 24. In the last couple of months I’ve started experiencing pain during sex, spotting and period pain cramps aswell as back ache. I saw the doctor and they have swabbed and tested for STIs and bacterial, and all come back clear. When dr swabbed she said my cervix was red and I had a lot of dark blood on the swabs. I’ve also had an ultrasound for polyps, endo, and fibroids, that has all come back normal too. My doctor is now saying I need to make a routine appointment to discuss my symptoms? I’m feeling frustrated and confused why I’m not being tested for cancer as a matter of urgency. The next routine appointment is 3 weeks away, and that’s just to go back to see the gp.
Can someone advise what you think the next steps would be please? Would you think this would be urgent referral?
Thanks
