Hi all,
I've had bleeding from vagina area, heavy fatigue and frequent urination, for the past 6 months. The blood shows up on the tissue after I pee. At first I thought it was from my urine. Urinalysis showed blood in urine. So I was referred to Urology for the camera inside the bladder. They found a tiny cluster of what he thinks is irregular blood vessels. I have to go back and get the same procedure within 2 weeks this time with the consultant so he can clarify what it is. Also been referred for a CT scan of bladder area.
On Monday this week I pushed for a pelvic exam and the nurse at the health centre carried this out. She found a large red lump on my cervix. As the speculum went inside it was extremely painful and I had to tell her to stop, so she couldn't swab. She has referred me to for the two week fast track.
Of course I've been googling like my life depended on it. And scaring myself.
I had a smear in 2022 all clear. I realize it could be a large Polyp or a fibroid. Are they generally very painful to touch? From what I've read Polyps are usually painless. So because of my symptoms I'm worried and driving myself crazy. Would be great to learn from others experiences. All the best.
