Cervical cancer? What else could it be?

I have had a smear- awaiting results but told that the cervix looks healthy.

I have had my bloods taken- this has come back as 'fine' what is the purpose of taking my blood? If it's fine does that mean I do not have anything wrong?

I had an internal and external scan at my gp surgery where they referred me. They said it is not fibroids. But they couldn't see fully.

I have had for the last 12months increase in discharge this has always been clear but appeared to be constant.

I have had cramps throughout my cycle. More common recently.

I began to bleed in December.
I have been flooding at points.
I stop bleeding and start again following any pelvic exam.

I am in pain in my pelvis which radiates, I can have stabbing pro longed pains on one side.
I have stabbing pains in points in my lower back but not always the same places the pains seems to move and is not constant. It seems worse at night and in the morning.
I am exhausted.

I have been referred to a gynocologist. And am awaiting to hear of an appointment. This was on the basis that I begged them too.

My sister was diagnosed last week with cervical cancer she is 1 year younger than me.

I am worried. But would rather know what is wrong with me. So that I can deal with it.

Hello
I took the last 11 days off work.
Bleeding has stopped. But has come back twice when my bowels have moved.
I am still getting cramps every now and then. But much better then I was.
I also feel quite naucious. I took a pregnancy test just to rule that out. Which was negative. I'm also very tired. And seem to sleep quite a lot during the day.

My smear was over 5 weeks ago. Still no results.

Apparently there are staff shortages.
I'm back to work tomorrow. I'm not better and don't think I will be and can only really manage my symptoms until I know what is wrong. But I feel better today

5 weeks you've been waiting. That's horrendous. Can't the surgery hurry them up or something. Glad you are feeling slightly better.

How is your sister?
