So I have been having some bleeding during sex and I am
utterly terrified I have cancer. Around 8 years ago I had HPV virus and abnormal cells, I went for a biopsy and they said all was fine and I would just need more regular smears which I have always kept up to date with with no concerns mu smears that followed I have all been fine with no HPV or abnormal cells.
however during 2020 which went so fast and in a whirlwind I noticed every now and again during sex a little blood I would say maybe 4 times between January and august. I have been with my partner for 14 years we have sex a couple of times a week and it would just happen now again not every time. I would constantly tell myself it was because I had just had my period and I hadn't fully come of properly. In august I had my smear test and it came back I had HPV again but no abnormal cells I called my doctor immediately to tell him about the bleeding as it said to on the letter if I had any symptoms. He said he wasn't too concerned as it had only been a handful of times but if it continued to call again. he then promptly called back and said he had made a mistake and I needed to come in for tests.
I did I saw a nurse who said they were testing for STDS if nothing came back I would be referred to gynaecology. Tests came back clear but then another doctor called back saying he didn't see any issue the previous smear was fine and not to worry but if it got worse to call again.
this past week I have the strangest pain in my lower tummy by my belly button if I cough sneeze or strain almost like a burning sensation which is really worrying me again I tried to put It down to a pulled muscle but now I'm concerned it's linked to the bleeding. We had sex the week before last and I bled quiet a lot during sex but again I convinced myself it was due to coming out my period two or three days before. We then had sex last Monday and no bleeding. We had sex last night and it happened again a lot of blood covering both me and my partner and the sheets so we had to stop.
I have called the doctors today and I am awaiting a call back but I can't focus I am so worried I am Utterly convinced it's cancer and I am so angry with myself for allowing this to go on for 13 months without doing anything. I haven't slept I felt sick and just keep thinking I'm going to die.
I can't imagine I am going to be seen quickly and will have to wait for a referal to gynaecology but I am so worried
