Thanks Mary Jane.

Yes you are a bit blunt and im really stressed out about it.
My previous post i mentioned that i had lost friends to cervical cancer and that is already weighing on my mind.
In the past 10 days iv seen my regular gp twice and the other female gp once and im not making any headway.
I had a scan three years to check my ovaries and lining of my womb and all was fine.
Iv also had a procedure to check my bladder and that was fine.
I know it was three years ago and things change, just wanted to add that.
I cannot afford to go private ...

'yes' is a lubricant, it won't plump up the vaginal tissues but if used on the inner and outer lips and just inside the vagina, you may feel more comfortable down there.

You could ring the hospital dept. next week and ask if there really is that long a wait?  If that's how it is, what's a Girl to do,  :-\ :  the Consultants work a set number of hours regardless of what the Government suggests as 'waiting' times.  Hospital machinery is available during working hours and if there are lots of people needing investations, sadly it is what it is.  Guidelines etc. can't alter how well staffed our NHS happens to be.

Your GP could of course refer you to a different Hospital but the waiting times may be worse .......... you could of course ring round to see then if there is less of a list get your GP to send a letter.  Go to the appt. which turns up first but do remember to cancel the other one!

Thank you ckld 😊.

Iv booked a smear test privately for next week .
I went and had a look at private coloscopys and the price is just to much.
Tbh it didnt even cross my mind to think of trying a different hospital..
I will give a few ring arounds on monday.

Keep a list of who you ring, I did that a few years ago and thought I would remember  ::) - by the end of a morning I didn't know which Dept I had spoken to or where : putty brain  ::)
