  • Welcome to the forum Leona although I'm sorry to read what you're going through.

    Many of our members have consulted 'Dr.Google' in their times of need and have also been scared by what they've come across so try not to go back to him again if you can as the information given there may not be the most reliable and will make you worry and stress more.

    You may want to have a chat with [@Marie026]‍ as she is in a similar position. Hopefully she'll pop by now I've mentioned her in this post but you can find out more about her just here.

    I hope things start to improve soon Leona and I wish you all the best for your upcoming gynae appointment.

    Kind regards,
