Hi guys i am worring myself sick silently. i have had cervical cancer in the early stages twice now, first was found at 23 when docs had difficulty fitting the coil. i was treated and had a smear test every 6 months for a few years then they went to a year. At 29 it had returned resulting in a full loop biopsy. after a few years again they were fine, so back to the yearly test. 3 years ago they siad i needed treatment agian, however when i went to the hospital they told me i was fine, but to have the repeat done at my docs in 6 months. i did and it came back fine, although i was concerned the nurse did not hurt me and i felt nothing this time(strange to say i was concerned not to feel pain but i was worried she dident know what she was doing and did not get the spot or was she was really good, they always have hurt in the past) anway they said i did not have to have them until 3 yearly now. but i have had two babies in that time. first was 5 weeks early and second was 13 weeks early(got her home two weeks ago after a long 12 weeks) i'm worried only because although i'm breast feeding my period is really heavy and painful. I have to change every hour but worse than that i have this really bad pubic bone pain and in my lower back and bad cramps even when i'm not on the cycle they are constant. i knew my baby would be earlier this time cause i kept telling my partner i felt like everything was burning and going to fall out along with really bad period pains throoughout the pregnancy. reasuance girls i know you going to say go docs but i'm too scared to now i have this really bad feeling that the last test was not done properly, how quick can this develope beyond sucessful treatment?. i never asked questions last time i just went on my own so my children wouldent know and worry. Now im scared i will be leaving them. (sad arnt i i just can not get rid of this dread with all thats happened in the last few years) is this a reason for my babies coming so early. god i rant sorry but i just want reasurance i guess that my symtoms are totally not related to cancer.

bloody hell! im so sorry to read what uve gone thru.

when my mum found out she had cervical cancer she had very very heavy periods but a friend of mine hasnt had a period in 9 months n shes also been told she has cervical cancer too.

another sign is spotting during a time when u shudnt be bleeding.

but there are so many others i cant say i no them all i didnt wana read n run.

go to ur doctors and tell them ur fears thats the only way ule no for sure

Sweetheart no one here can tell you that you're all clear. I truly wish we could. The only way is to get tested again. I am a firm believer that if you're not happy with one Dr or specialist then get a second opinion - or even third. It's your body and your life and you must feel comfortable with the answers you're given about it.

Wishing you all the best, but please make sure you seen more opinions. Always listen to your body and what it's trying to tell you
