Lletz procedure

hello. I am a 30yo mother of 2 (7 &2). I had an abnormal smear December 2013 and sent for a colposcopy and lletz procedure jan 2014. My smears from then have been normal. However from October 2018 I have been having stained, fouls discharge and a lot of bleeding between period and a after intercouse. My periods have been a lot heavier and longer also having always been on a regular cycle. 

I went to my gp who done a smear and red flagged me to gynae. (My smear came back unreadable due to the bleeding) when I went to Gynae the dr said there was inflammation in my cervix from having previous treatment and i now have to go back to have it sealed??? I was that relieved it wasn’t cancer I didn’t ask questions and left. However my follow up apt is a few weeks away and I am worrying myself crazy. How can this happen years on and after having a baby l, normal pregnancy and normal delivery. Sorry for the long post.
