Cervical Screening Programme 2020

I had my smear done at the end of November 2020. I was told 2-4 weeks for results, I think. I've yet to receive any results and with the time of year I can't get through to my GP surgery. I will phone them tomorrow if I can get through to them, as I believe they will be very busy.

Is anyone else in the West of Scotland experiencing a delay due to festive season and COVID? It's causing me anxiety with the delay. I suppose the old saying is no news is good news, but since I specifically requested to have one done I am left anxious.

 

 

 

  • Hello Melilshaw and welcome to the forum. 

    Hopefully some of our members who are experiencing this issue will get back to you soon but I hope you managed to get through to your GP since making this post and have got an update on your results.

    The waiting is always tough, as is the anxiety that comes with it, but I hope these tips on the NHS website will make things more manageable.

    Kind regards,
