Hi everyone,
During my last smear the nurse failed to locate my cervix during a routine Smear Test.
I was in some pretty strange positions, very uncomfortable and eventually she had to ask a senior nurse to help. The "that's surely it, it must be?" Was a little unsettling as I've never had a problem locating the cervix before.
I have had a colposcopy in the past and the nurses said they believe the scar tissue may have made my cervix smaller as they couldn't get the tinniest of swabs close enough to get a decent sample.
I was referred to hospital as they have better equipment, my appointment is tomorrow morning and I'm a little nervous as like I said there has never been an issue before and my colposcopy was a good few year ago. (About 5/6)
Anyone experience anything similar? I did the usual thing I tell everyone else not to do and googled possible outcomes!
Any thoughts, advice, experiences are greatly appreciated.
