3 weeks ago I ended up in hospital with an infection. I had an ultrasound and internal which showed abnormalities and a follow up MRI showed cancer at the top of my cervix. The consultant told me it wasn’t new and possibly in my lymph nodes. However, an infection can show up in the lymph nodes so they are not certain if the cancer is there or not. I was also told surgery was not an option for me but not sure what was meant by that. I had a biopsy done but have been told this has only showed scar tissue (in 2019 I has cancerous cells removed via LLETZ and smears since then clear) I have a PET scan planned for next week to find out if the cancer has spread and also waiting on a further biopsy to be done via general anaesthetic. I’m a mum of 2 young girls and petrified. My mind is going to the worst places and I’m so scared I’m going to die and leave them. I am trying to keep positive but I’m having trouble sleeping and I’m struggling with the day to day as the mind wonders…. I’m telling myself that I don’t know anything for certain but I am so so scared.
