feeling a bit scared/ worried

i had my smear done in November had my results last week saying that it was abnormal (1st one ever to be abnormal) and i would recieve a letter from the hospital for a colposcopy well they rang me friday letter only arrived Thursday, so we arranged for me to go up tomorrow, fast forward to yesterday I had to contact the hospital I have to self isolate due to being around someone who has tested positive, well they tell me on the phone no probelm ect we rearranged well she then says it is an emergency appointment so i now have to go in between christmas and new year so now i'm worrying as i've no idea why it would be classed as an emergency that's all the letter says was that the results come back abnormal, i've tried to speak to my mother but she just says she's had abnormal smears before and its fine but im more concerned about it being an emergency :confused:

  • Welcome to the forum, xxsarahlouisexxx although I'm sorry to hear about the reason that brings you here.

    With so much going on it's only natural to be concerned but do try not to work yourself up if you can, you've taken all the steps necessary and until you have a chance to go for your next appointment the best you can do is to take your mind out of it.

    If you find it impossible, however, and feel like speaking with someone medically trained might help please know our friendly team of nurses have their lines are open Monday - Friday between 9 a.m - 5 p.m on 0808 800 4040 if you want to ring and ask some questions.

    I hope all goes well for you, xxsarahlouisexxx.

    Best wishes,
