Hi Nicky

I’m sure the symptoms you are having, which must be very worrying, could have many explanations rather than cancer. I’m assuming that you might not have had a smear test due to your age. 

I do have cervical cancer, although I’m fine at the moment, and I would think the first thing you should do is go back to your doctor to see if you can be referred to a gynaecologist to do further investigations. 

From my experience in speaking to lots of women who have either precancerous cells in their cervix or cervical cancer, there are many different symptoms and many of these symptoms are also present with problems other than cervical cancer. 

So I would recommend initially trying to get a referral to a gynaecologist on the NHS to see what’s going on. I can say that on the NHS things go very quickly if there is a suspicion of cancer-for example my treatment started 6 weeks after diagnosis, and would have been quicker had I not been waiting for an NHS number (I moved from Scotland to England so needed to register again). 

Hope this helps a little, and let us know how it goes. xx
