Hi Everyone
im just looking for a bit of advice really. A small growth was found whilst having a smear test, only other symptoms are occasional back ache and severe thrush due to type 2 diabetes. I have been put on the 2 week wait list and I’m so scared it’s cervical cancer. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
I’m normally always happy to chat, and it helps take my mind off my own problems. I’m usually around and posting/replying every day-just not so much recently-but I will be again. That’s really kind of you.

Dear Em x
I was diagnosed with Stage 3 cervical cancer in 2022 and I am now in remission with no reoccurrence so far x i understand how worried you must be and it’s hard not to think the worse when waiting for the appointment and then results x I will be thinking of you and as Sarah says please let us know how you get on x will be thinking about you
Remember something important too, Em. It’s not cancer until they tell you it’s cancer.
I’m keeping that thought right at the front of my mind with my partner just now. It might be something else, and hopefully it is!
