The title is probably quite shocking but is it not what we all want to know, I definitely do. From the minute I was told there was something wrong that’s the only question flying around my brain. I would absolutely love someone to just tell me one way or the other so I can move my brain forward from the mud that it’s stuck in. Alllll I do all day long is try to not think about what could be wrong with me, end up deep down Google rabbit holes trying to find answers to questions only a doctor can tell me. It’s exhausting, draining and frustrating. My journey isn’t unique nor should anyone specifically care, you don’t know me. But the reason I’m writing this is because to say that the statistics of women who have abnormal smears is so high yet the amount of advise and support out there is so low is shocking. It’s not easy to find, there’s not enough actual real information that’s understandable. Barley and videos on TikTok, nothing but medical jargon on YouTube yet if you want a new hair style there’s millions of videos.
