Advice- polyp

Hi everyone, hope you're all doing ok today. I went to the doctors in nov because of sometimes bleeding after sex, and i had a referral for the hospital which did take a long time so its not untill feb 27th. But since i last went and now ive had some more symptoms, ive had some pinkish discharge, the bottom of my back for the last 3 weeks has been so so sore at the bottom and also bleeding when i shouldnt because i take a pill everyday. So after some advice if i should wait or re book in to the doctors with these new symptoms. Thanks for reading. Xx

  • Hello Tiffany29

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some ongoing health concerns which have resulted in you being referred to the hospital. 

    As your appointment isn't for another month and you've developed some news symptoms it would be sensible to get in touch with your GP to let them know. If they need to get in touch with the hospital team then they will be able to do so for you. 

    I hope things settle soon.

  • Hello, unfortunately my appointment got cancelled, and is re booked for next month, but i have been back for my back ache/pain and the dr prescribed be 244 codeine tablets which i thought was a rather lot. But the pain has got worse, ive been shopping today and is literally right on my right side everytime i walked the pain is soo bad. Also today sorry TMI i went to the llo yesterday wiped and there was blood on the tissue, so i put a pantiliner in, went again and absolutely nothing there apart from 1 spot of brown. Im soo confused with what is going on at the moment and i really feel out of my body. Do i call the doctors again and go back?.

  • Hello Tiffany29, 

    What a shame that your appointment got cancelled. I am sorry to hear you have been in so much pain and that it has got worse despite being prescribed all those strong painkillers. I think it would be worth calling the doctors again and mentioning that you are still in pain and also that there was blood when you wiped today. 

    I hope that all these symptoms improve soon and that you get to talk to a doctor soon about this. 

    Best wishes,

  • Hi thanks for your reply, i did go back to the doctors who actually told me she was concerned for cervical cancer, and was asking if i had family etc, she then looked at my cervix and after said it actually looks good, but then i got a 2ww referral, so i am confused, was she lying and said it looked good or would she have told me that it didnt look so good while i was there, i still get the back pain. Thanks
