Hi,
I’m looking for somewhere to offload my worries I think. I went to my GP a few weeks ago with irregular periods, bloody discharge between periods and general back/hip pains. She did an internal exam and found something on my cervix which she could see and referred me to the hospital via the 2 weeks referral pathway.
When I went and saw the consultant she said she would do an internal exam and if necessary do a biopsy.
She ended up taking two biopsies from my cervix and womb. She said my womb was “bulky” (I have no idea what that means) and that the legions on my cervix bled when she touched them. I’ve been told I also need a colposcopy and an ultrasound scan, and that the biopsy results could be weeks.
I am in a complete state of confusion and anxiety as I don’t really know what to expect, and I don’t think I can cope waiting weeks for biopsy results. I haven’t told anyone else, except my wife who is very much of the “don’t stress we’ll just see” opinion. I feel so very alone.
For some context I am 37yrs old and I have an 8yr old following 2 previous miscarriages.
Is it normal to wait weeks for results? Does a longer wait mean it’s bad news? I’m honestly in such a state, I cant eat or sleep and day to day life is getting harder.
Thank you in advance for any help or advice.
