Hi,
My nurse practitioner has been reviewing an odd lesion on the inside of my labia majora. It is a flat white patch (about 6mm but not a clear cut border) with a grey middle and a purple mark just outside of it. She gave me steroid cream for a while but they made no difference. She referred me on a 2WW back in June and the hospital is backlogged and can’t see me until October (they agreed the urgency). I feel torn as to whether I should pursue this or not for a faster appointment at another hospital, or leave it to October. The lesion is not itchy or sore at all. It’s been there about a year. The only other thing of possible note is that I ask have a small hard nodule just inside the entrance to my vagina but I don’t have any symptoms from it. Thank you.
Hi
I agree with Trish. If it is possible to get an appointment sooner at a different hospital I would try and do that. A lot could change between now and October.
Best of luck and I hope you get a quicker appointment.
Xx
