Bleeding stopped

Hi NJH75

I had heavy bleeding one day and then it stopped. I bled after my biopsy for around 24 hours. Other than that I had no bleeding.

So the bleeding and discharge stopping doesn't mean that the reason for it has gone away unfortunately. 

I know that you are worried but you are doing the right thing in getting everything thoroughly checked. I have come across ladies in this group since I have been a Community Champion and some have just had a one off bleed, some have had just a tiny amount of discharge and some have had no symptoms at all.

Thank you Jane. I am going to try to not think about the ifs and buts until Tuesday. 

Really appreciate the absolute transparency of this group.

Take care

You are wise not to think about things until you have to.. I was in an awful state at the start of this journey and someone called 'marmite' on here advised that I take each day at a time and not to think too much about things until I knew what was happening. It stood me in good stead and I still practice that habit! Good wishes.

Hey that was me! I used to phone my CNS whenever I felt overwhelmed with anxiety, and she told me to practice focussing on what was known “that day” only, not what wasn’t known yet, and so I passed that advice on here. Glad it helped! (It’s not easy though and takes practice/repetition)

Brilliant! You really helped me out of the fog and I have adopted this process for every day now. THANK YOU.

I really need to take that on board ..great words.

Thank you for the advice x
