cervical smear results -scared

Hi everyone,

I went to my GP last Tuesday with pelvic and back pain/aching, change in my periods from very light to really heavy, tiredness (which i just put down to being a busy mum) and also a bit of pale pink/brown spotting a few hours after sex with my husband. Although my smear test was already booked for September the GP done one there and then and having bloods done tomorrow. I am totally beside myself with worry and wondering how long others are waiting for smear results atm.

Thank you :)
