I went to the doctors at the start of January due to a few symptoms, bleeding between periods, period type cramping pains etc.

I first reported this when I had my smear and was told everything looked ok and my results came back clear. It was then that I went the GP who referred me for a colposcopy under the two week wait. When I got there they said going from my symptoms and recent smear test I should never have been sent there. I let them do it anyway to try and move forward and they advised for me to get back in touch with the GP for an ultrasound.

At the end of February, the ultrasound found a suspected uterine polyp of around 11mm. Again back to the GP, well an advanced nurse anyway, who then referred me to gynaecology.

When the date on the "urgent referral" letter had passed, I called the hospital who have told me the wait time to be seen is 8 - 12 months. I don't know if I should be on the 2 weeks wait as I was sent to the wrong place at first. When first referred they said it was to gynaecology but when I went for the colposcopy they said it was just a clinic and not part of general gynaecology?

Is this right to wait so long for an appointment to then wait again for a hysteroscopy? I'm worried there could be something wrong and they might wait a year or so to check.

Meanwhile I'm enjoying the pain and being on edge worrying I might start bleeding again at anytime.
