CIN 3

Hi,

I've had a lletz procedure due to my smear coming back as CIN 3 changes. I then had a letter saying they got no clear margins so I need to have it again.

I saw the Dr as I felt it warranted a face to face and we decided between us that I'd have it under general this time so she can be more aggressive with it.

Trouble is my op was in another 4 weeks and now it's been cancelled due to my period and I'm now looking at mid to late May.

I'm just so frustrated, the Dr's away until next week so can't even get another date until then and all that's in my head is we are just leaving it, running the risk of more changes etc. Its already potentially ruined my chances of another baby and now I don't feel like I'm getting anywhere.

 

More of a rant than anything I know xx
