Cervical cancer

Today I found out that I have cervical cancer I am waiting for a mri to decide what treatment to have. The consultant told me I have stage 1b . I have to wait at least 30+ days before I could get a appointment. How quickly can the cancer spread would anyone suggest to go private rather than wait NHS is am 32 with 2 children. I don't think I can wait that long to find out if it could be worse .
