I’ve had a smear test booked in for the last 2 months and the appointment is next week. I thought it might have been cancelled but given they haven’t contacted me I’m assuming it’s going ahead. I really can’t decide if I should cancel. On one hand smears are really important and who knows how long this will go on for so if I cancel I could end up being overdue by 6 months. On the other hand, unless the nurse attaches the speculum to the end of a broom stick, she’s going to have to get very close!
I know doctor’s surgeries are taking lots of precautions - DS had his immunisation boosters the day schools closed and they called me the day before to check we were symptom free - but I’d rather not be at a doctors surgery at the minute unless urgent. What would others do?
