Hi Guys,
I'm not usually one to share these sort of anxities to total strangers but given the fact we all have a common fear or problem with our health and mind state, I thought this may be the best place to seek advice.
I am a pre worry worrier, and as I understand it is my first smear test I shouldn't worry because I have no history of abnormal tests, I havent been able to relax for the past 3 days.
It is 5 in the morning and I have been up all night researching Cervical cancer.
I am 25. And recently I have had abnormal periods, I am on the contraceptive implant which has messed with my menstrual cycle as it is for the past 2 years, but in the last 2 months I have had heavy bleeding. I haven't gone to the GP purely because I thought it had something to do with the implant....
Now I wish I did go because I would have already had results.
I know im probably making myself worry more then I should but Cervical cancer is my biggest fear, and now I feel awful.
How long do the results usually take? and do they call you or send you a letter?
Thanks guys! im sorry for being a big baby!
