Cervical cancer back pain

Hi

I have been experiencing some of the symptoms of CC and wanted to find out if and when you felt back pain. I bleed in between periods and after intercourse. Sometimes for up to a week and a half. I had always put it down to being on the pill. (Irregular periods) every time I try to book into having a smear test I end up bleeding a day or two before so have to cancel. It takes 2 weeks to be seen by a drs at my surgery.

I have been having back pain in the evenings but just put that down to being overworked. Last Monday I began getting a pain in my lower back which has been constant. I have tried all sorts hot water bottle, ice packs, voltarol cream, ibuprofen and co codamol. Nothing has helped and it’s pretty painful with apressure like pain. I will be going into see my drs today. 

What did your back pain feel like? I have searched the web and have found no description of a certain type of back pain for CC. I’m worried it could be something serious as nothing has helped with easing the pain. My Nan also died of Cervical cancer 42 years ago. Does this put me at a greater risk?

  • I am having exactly the same symptoms. Do you have an update on how things are? Hope all is well. 

  • Hi I'm having the same symptoms now and wondered how it worked out for you? I'm only 20 so I know it would be a rare case and I obviously haven't had a smear yet but I'm very scared. My doctor did a swan test yesterday but I had a urine sample taken a few months ago for the same symptoms and it came back clear so I don't think it's an infection which scares me more. The back pain went a way for a while and isn't as bad now even thought it's come back and the spotting has been very very light, I only noticed it 3 times at first and i only saw it once this time (3 months later). Please help 

  • Hello, it's so frustrating isn't it. I had my smear and colposcopy and all came back clear with no concerns. Was told its probably just one of them things however, at the age of 36 I've never had irregular bleeding and am not on hormonal contraception. My spotting also comes on around ovulation. It's hard because I want to push to be checked as the back pain at times is like a horrendous spasm. 

    However to reassure you, mine was nothing to do with cervical cancer. All is good in that area. 

    Let me know how you're getting on.
