Hi
Well I have a a real fear of cervical cancer and this time I'm so frightened I have it and it's been left untreated.
Bit of background info, I had an abnormal smear some 12 years ago which was treated and I then went on to have normal smears for some years after. I had my little boy and noticed a lot of bleeding after intercourse and even though smears were clear I was referred back for a colposcopy. They weren't at all worried, said it was just some delicate cells and removed them. I've since learned this was an ecroption.
Then my next smear after this treatment came back bordeline. I went back to the clinic and had another colposcopy and lot of treatment and biopsy result was no significant abnormality.
My following smear showed some inflammation but I had a water infection at the time and the nurse send it is quite common to have this after treatmet and it's just where the new cells haven't come through yet?
I've since had three clear smears all within the last few years the last one last May but they say I'm not due for another one now til 2014.
I'm now 39 and have been experiencing some problems such as intermittent bleeding after intercourse which doctor says is due to a small ectropion, she also said in Jan this year my cervix looked completely healthy which she said it apparently doesn't in cases of Cervical C.
I had a clear ultrasound and internal in Jan this year due to having a couple of wonky periods, which they put down to my age.
So fast forward to this month and I found a few days after my period ended I had some brown/pink discharge which worried me but I thought maybe it was just the remnants of my period.
Now I've been having quite a lot of discharge this month and although the spotting seemed to have stopped I've still been worrying something is wrong.
The last few days I've been having lots of discharge sorry TMI and I've just been upstairs to wipe and what I'm losing is copious amounts of clear discharge with blood streaks so I'm now scared to death.
I'm sorry theres so much to read but felt I had to give some background info so you will know why I'm so petrified it is Cervical C.
Please help don't know what to do I'm so scared I know they've missed it on my last smears:weep:
I keep reading forums and women on there are saying their CC wasn't detected by regular smears and they were diagnosed late!!
Oh forgot to add the bleeding after intercourse my doctor thinks was down to me being so tense and the last couple of times when I've used lubrication it has been ok.
