So after receiving a letter a few weeks back saying I have no gynaecological cancer, I saw my Gynaecologist yesterday who advised me to go ahead with a hysterectomy as she (and radiologists) cannot be 100% certain the swelling high on my cervix is not cancer so I'm booked to have it next year - I can't get in until then.  So once again I will have more waiting once the cervix and womb have been removed.  She said as long as it doesn't look cancerous she is going to keep the ovaries.  All this waiting though... I've had symptoms since 2011 been fobbed off by various doctors. Having to put up with pelvic pain, can't have sex due to pain, my first scans this time around were July and January I will get my hysterectomy.  I was okay in the meeting but when I walked out of the hospital I just burst into tears - maybe it's just relief? Did anyone else feel this way? I am anxious about my op but also relieved I am finally having something done about it and can hopefully start living a normal life again! Best wishes to everyone x
