Hiya,
Feeling so miserable and anxious at the moment and really need help!!
I'm a 32 year old woman.
In 2005 I experimented with my ex with anal sex (twice) :blush:
In 2006 I was diagnosed with high grade cervical pre-cancer caused by HPV which was treated.
In 2006 I took myself for an anal smear test (to be on the safe side). High risk HPV was found.
Clear cervical smears since, until March 2013 where a clear cervical smear also picked up high risk HPV and been referred back to colposcopy next week :weep:
Since 2006 I have had "problems" with my anal area... itching, a bit "leaky" etc. In the last year the itching has got worse and I've had a bit of bright red blood when I go to the loo. So today I took myself to the GP... he saw a couple of grey patches around my anus and a couple of small haemorrhoids. He has referred me to a specialist.
I am terrified I have anal cancer or pre-cancer. I really can't cope with this (I've also had two miscarriages following IVF in the last 6 months). I feel horrendous about my body. I'm worried that the GP was trying to make me feel better by saying I had haemorrhoids - he referred me without hesitation.
Please help.
