Any advice would be appreciated. I am 61 and now in week 4 of post menopausal bleeding, very heavy. I have backache and pelvic discomfort. This came on suddenly with no warning. GP has given me tablets to try and help and has made a referral for me to be seen at hospital. My discomfort is getting worse so I phoned my surgery to request some further telephone advice only to be told that because of Covid and staff shortages they are only dealing with medical emergencies. I don't know what I should do, if anything. My symptoms are suggestive of cancer. I know and feel something isn't right but I'm reluctant to 'bother the NHS' when they are already overwhelmed. That said, I feel I need to be seen ASAP. Any advice please?
