Hi all... newbie here!! Just been reading through some old posts on the site and it seems like this is some where I could ask these questions so here goes....
What was your first symptoms of cervical cancer?
And has anyone ever had a ectropian turn out to be cancer?
Heres a little bit about my background....
I'm 27 and have been experiencing pain during and after sex, bleeding in between cycles not heavy bleeding just spotting and streaks.
Increased watery discharge (lots of it)
Lower back pain
Pelvic tenderness and pain.
And numbness (fizziness) in my left leg.
This has been going on for over 18 months I visited my gp in October last year who looked at my cervix and and referred me to gynae under the 2 week rule.
At my gynae appointment, the consultant took a look down using a speculum and checked me for any stis there and told me I have a cervical erosion.
He asked me what was causing me the most problems the post sex bleeding or the pain....I explained the pain was persistent and was affecting my life - he asked me about my background I explained I had a csection in 2015 and he then put the pain down to adhesions from the surgery and told me the cervical erosion would heal on it's own....he then discharged me from gynae and told me to practice exercises to help these 'adhesions'
Well fast forward to now I'm still in constant pain worse than before,
The bleeding is happening alot more and my periods have become particular heavy ( if always been a light flow) I'm terrified its something more sinister!!!
Has anyOne been through anything similar?
I'm reluctant to go back to the gp after keep being fobbed off. Xx
