Many worrying symptoms and 2 week wait before smear test

Hi everyone, my name is Aimie, I am 30 and I have been having a lot of worrying symptoms.

These are: bleeding/discharge of various colours and consistency from watery pink to brown and back to red every day for the last 42 days after missing a period, incontinence (I have wet my bed twice in 6 months), constant need to urinate, pain in lower abdomen ranges from dull period type ache to chronic pains that last 20 to 30 mins, lower back ache (again similar to period pain) I went to my doctor 5 days ago and he did quick UTI and pregnancy tests, both of which came back negative. I have been given Cerezette (progestogen only contraceptive pill) as it may help if I have PCOS as the doctor says he thinks that's what it could be but I have been given a urine pot and was told to book a smear (to hand in urine sample for full bioanalysis when I come for smear appointment) unfortunately I now have to wait over 2 weeks for my cervical screen test (valentines day!) and I am going out of my mind. Has anyone else had to wait so long for testing when they have symptoms like this/what were your symptoms before testing and results? Unfortunately I keep getting told "it's probably nothing" or "you probably have wind" or "it's just a bladder infection" but sometimes you just know it's not like anything you've felt/had before. 

  • Hi lovely sadly I think it is because smear awareness weeks,I called on Friday for my routine check and not being seen till the 6th Feb.....fingers crossed for you Hun x

  • Hi, thanks for replying! Yes I did see that they're trying to make more women less intimidated by the cervical screening which is brilliant. I feel a bit foolish as I had one at 25 then didn't bother with one 3 years later. I recently had a message reminding me I am due another. I was already planning on going to get checked out but was hesitant due to how busy they are and the fact I always get told my ailments are due to me being overweight.
