Hi,
I visited the doctors on Wednesday due to bleeding between periods, she examined me and said she could see something on my cervix, hopefully cervical ectropion but she needed a second opinion to check for cancer with a colposcopy and as I have a bladder prolapse she was struggling to see properly. She send an urgent 2 week wait appointment to the hospital. I had a letter on Thursday which said I should call in Friday had I not heard anything.
I called today, they said they wait for a consultant to grade the referrals before knowing when to book in. They then called back and said it had been done and could they see me on Monday. I explained I would be on a period at the time and what should I do, she booked a telephone consultation with a view to being seen later the week.
Now I've sat and thought about it, I am concerned at what they must have seen on my referral to decide then needed to see me so soon. I'm worried something must have been very bad. The doctor I saw on Wednesday knows how worried I have been and I am wondering if she tried to calm me when maybe there is something I need to be concerned about.
I'm so diligent with my smear tests and was clear at my last one 2.5 years ago so I was trying to stay up beat about what could possibly happen in that time but now I feel I need to be aware that there could be a problem here.
any advice would be really appreciated,
thank you,
