Hi
I have been sent a reminder for a smear test, which is long overdue. But I am very reluctant to go because I had a very painful, traumatic birth with DS 5 months ago (includiung infected episiotomy scar) and I'm worried it will hurt. Am I just being a wimp?
Also, is it absolutely necessary for me to go? I have only ever had sex with my husband, and he has only ever had sex with me.
Any advice would be welcome..
