Hi!
New to the forums.
I'll try to keep this brief.
I attended my local GUM after a sexual assault, whilst there I had a smear test. Doctor was provisionally treating me for PID as I had pelvic pain, blood in urine and leukocytes ++.
After a week, my results all came back clear (thankfully). But, my smear test was taken 6 months too early and disposed of.
I got called back in by the Doctor who did another internal examination after all infections werw ruled out (also ruling out PID).
So, she told me I have cervial erosion which is fairly common, but, she wanted me to have a US Pelvis (scan) which is next week but also a referral to gynea.
Now, she was vague with me, she didn't say much but wanted these appts done quickly.
Since then, I've been thinking back on all my symptoms (which have got worse this last 4 weeks).
Tired, all the time, pains like severe period pains in centre and to right of lower pelvis. Heavy periods yet irregular. Back pain every day (this has worsened). Bowel habits have changed drastically too (sorry for TMI but, even passing wind feels difficult). Im not constipated but fluctuating in habits. Im bruising easily all of the time. I feel bloated and full up easily (not like me lol).
Now, I know that most people would worry and, that there is nothing I can do until I've had this scan and appt.
I have two kids (14 and 2) and, I'm really trying to think positive etc. I just feel so, anxious! Again, I know... Hold out until the scan etc. Its just hard and easy to think worst case scenario.
Sorry, I just needed a safe place to have a little rant!
