Hello Cerilou and welcome to the forum.

I'm sorry about the symptoms you've been experiencing and that you've not been able to book in with your doctor just yet but fingers crossed you're able to do this soon as they're the only ones who can help you figure out what's going on and put your mind at ease.

In the meantime, I hope some of our members who have had similar symptoms will be along for a chat soon.

Kind regards,

Thankyou Steph for the reply I still haven't managed to get to the doctors my work hours are crazy I work late shifts or nights and have been doing 50 hours a week since last March when we had the first lockdown we kept our hotel open to accommodate nurses and doctors who couldn't go home to family because of fear of maybe passing covid to their families and seeing all them nurse and doctors what they were going through and seeing how upset stressed and risking their lives to be at the hospital everyday I felt kinda selfish taking a doctors appointment for myself when people who were really unwell and have serious health problems struggle to see their doctor or get their hospital appointments I'm going to try get to the doctors in a few weeks as I have couple of weeks holiday the lump is still there its gotten bigger feels like a marble but bigger on my vaginal wall quite far up inside I'm not sure if it's anything to worry about but my health in general does not feel good I feel exhausted all the time can sleep 14 hours straight if I have a day off I am having constant abdominal pain on my left side I've lost wieght and can't put it back on my irregular bleeding is worse than ever I did not say before but sometimes I don't have a period for months then I will bleed for months when I do stop bleeding I always have bloody discharge but it can be a range of different colours of blood Im sorry for going on i have not spoken to anyone about this my partner just doesn't listen if I try to talk to him and no one else close enough to talk too has anybody else on here had similar symptoms to me if so could you please message me let me know what it turned out to be could really use somebody to talk to o feel so alone and sad and if anybody just wants somebody to talk to I'm a good listener  

Dear Cerilou,

I am replying because I think you need to get an urgent appointment. I have had a growth on my vaginal wall for some months. Like you I did not go the doctor straight away because I thought it might not be anything and doctors were overwhelmed with Covid plus all the other things. I did finall go about one month ago, GP did not know what it was and referred me on the 2 week cancer referral to the gynaecologist. I had a biopsy, CT scan and MRI and last week I was diagnosed with cancer of the vagina, grade 2.

if I had gone sooner they might have caught the cancer earlier and the treatment would have been easier. So please, Cerilou, go to the doctors NOW. 
Best wishes
