2 week urgent referral

I went to my gp due to irregular bleeding, she could see a abnormal area on my cervix. I’ve got my appointment through, it’s on the 14th.  I’m absolutely terrified to be honest. Trying to carry on as normal, after all it could be nothing to worry about.  But I can’t stop thinking what if it is bad..... my husband doesn’t know what to say or do.  He just says we deal with whatever when it happens and carries on as normal.  I feel like my life is on hold.  Every ache/pain or cramp I’m imagining it’s something much worse than what it probably is. 

Sorry for the rant, just needed to get it off my chest . 

  • Hi there,

    Glad your doctor has rightly referred you, always best to be on the safe side.  Totally get that you're terrified but please know that abnormal areas on cervices can be cysts, polyps etc.  You're in the system now and all that worrying it's going to be something bad is doing is ruining your life at this moment in time.  Which is pointless when you think about it, regardless of what your results turn out to be.

    It's easier said than done but when you constantly remind yourself how pointless the worry is and how silly it is to ruin today due to an unknown then it gradually becomes easier to push those thoughts aside each time they creep in.

    Your life should definitely not be on hold.

    Let us know how you get on?
