I've been having a few strange symptoms in the vaginal/cervix region for a few months. I started off with some stopping that lasted 5 days and then happened again 10 days later. Went to Drs who said was probably spotting due to implant (have had an implant for 9 years with no spotting prior to this) Dr also referred me for early smear as I have had to have lletz in past. During smear it was painful and I bled quite a bit after. Returned to Drs 2 days after smear Dr had a look and said everything looked fine and said that the nurse who did smear may have just been a little rough. Smear results came back fine and had no spotting for about 6 weeks. Then had spotting again returned to Drs and they did internal exam she said she could see lots of discharge and that the cervix looked ok but the inside of my vagina looked red and inflamed. She suggested it could possibly be thrush or an infection so took swabs. Swabs all came back fine. It still felt inflamed down and sore down there so returned to Drs who said there was nothing more that they could do as swabs had come back fine and I had no more spotting. At this point I asked for my implant to be removed to ensure that the spotting was only a result of nexplanon. Dr agreed had removed beginning of Nov and went in pill. Since then I have had no spotting but it still feels sore down there and there is a heavy feeling in my cervix (Well I think it's my cervix) I have also had lots of normal looking discharge, but excessive amounts. I have self treated for bv and thrush which has alleviated symptoms slightly. However it stills feel sore and I still have the heavy feeling in my cervix and then last time we had sex it was slightly uncomfortable but I have dull pelvic pain ever since (3days ago). Sorry for the epic post it's just all getting me a bit down and not sure what it could be? Any one have any suggestions or had any similar symptons?

So went back to Drs today and she has diagnosed me with IBS. She examined me and said it doesn't feel swollen up there. not sure I agree with her diagnosis as after reading up on IBS I don't actually have any of the symptoms. I asked what would happen if the IBS tablets didn't work and she said nothing it night just be pains I have to deal with and that by thinking about them I'll make them worse. I'm so worried it's something more serious yet I just feel fobbed off. Don't know what to do next?
