3/4 y ars ago I had my first smear test, I had high grade cell changes, had them investigated, burnt away and my biopsy came back clear, no cancer. I was supposed to go back 6 weeks later to have another smear and check all the cells had gone but I’m ashamed to say I never went back. I haven’t had another smear test since that first one. I am so so stupid. I’ve since had a baby (10 months ago) and during the pregnancy everything was normal, I had to have a consultant check my cervix due to me having the cells burnt away previously just to check it all looked ok, she said my cervix looked healthy. Birth also went fine.
My problem is I’m now having abnormal spotting between my periods. Not exactly bleeding more like brown discharge and sometimes the tissue paper is pink when I wipe. I’ve booked a smear test for this Tuesday and I’m absolutely shitting myself. I don’t know now What I i was thinking risking my health I have 3 kids who need me but it was just one of those things I always said I’d get round to doing and I just never did. I know that the spotting could be something as simple as my body settling down after having a baby but I’m just thinking he worst here. Should I go see the doctor today and voice my concerns?
