Cervix Concerns

Went for a pelvic ultrasound on Friday after some issues i've had. When the operator did the scan she said that my cervix looks abnormally thick with a lot of fluid and she need to get a doctor to look at the pictures and then they will get back to me. I asked about cancer but they were pretty vague. I had a normal smear last year and im in my 20s.

Just going a bit out of my mind with worry and wondering if anyone has been though anythig similar and if anyone has any tips on how to cope with the waiting and what I might expect next? 

Much appreciated 

  • Hi An566ya,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It is understandable for any uncertainties and extra waiting time to cause some concerns. I know it can be easier said than done, but try not to assume anything - hopefully it won't be long to wait for the results and to get the information you need. In the meantime, try to take things a day at a time and if possible keep busy to help find some distractions from any worries.

    If you feel you'd like to talk things through with someone, you are more than welcome to give our nurses a call. You can reach them on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    Wishing you all the best,
