  • Hello Coldol80

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some ongoing health concerns recently. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious about your pending blood results and a repeat smear test. Hopefully, your upcoming appointment with the GP will provide you with some answers and reassurance and set you on the right path to improving your symptoms. 

    In the meantime we know that for many people this period of waiting and uncertainty can be difficult and I wondered if you might find it helpful to chat things through with one of our nurses. I'm sure they'll be happy to offer any support and information they can to help. If you'd like to chat with them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
