Been scrolling through this forum and it's been really helpful hearing people's experiences but was hoping someone could maybe advise for my specific situation?
I've been referred for a two week referral for cervical cancer after having irregular bleeding between periods. The doctor advised me not to google etc but obviously can't help myself, all I can think is it must be urgent if it needs checking in two weeks!
I have had two bad smears with HPV and abnormal cells in the past two years, each requiring a colposcopy, however both colps have not required treatment, I was told on both occasions to have a yearly smear and they'll keep an eye on it.
im obviously out of my mind scared, and hoping anyone could help stop me going out of my mind? My last colposcopy was September so I'm hoping if it is bad news, it might not be particularly advanced? Or is that not how it works? The doctor said 'cell changes on cervix' so im assuming it's not a polyp or anything like that, this is adding further worry as it must have been big if she could just see it with her naked eye?
im so sorry if this doesn't make much sense my heads all over the place but thank you in advance for any responses!
