Hi Everyone....
I've had an odd few weeks!
I've been lurking around these forums as I had been feeling generally unwell, fatigued, regular low (mildly) neutrophil counts and then found a sore swelling in my armpit. On further investigation, I found a hard fixed lump in my groin which immediately worries me, but having just been diagnosed with inflammatory arthritis, I figured it was probably that, but was referred to haematology.
In the midst of these things, I had my routine smear- then I got the post on Thursday, along with my haematology referral letter I got another which informed me I am HPV + & also have high grade dyskaryosis.
Then today I am spotting bright red blood.
I really don't know what to think! I saw the Haematologist this morning who confirmed the hard lump, and has taken a lot of bloods & referred me on for a scan in a week or so. She was lovely and said it could be any number of things but I am just so shaken by the cervical screening letter.
This morning I got an appointment for Colposcopy this coming Wednesday.
i think if it was one or the other, I wouldn't be so worried.
If you got this far- thank you for reading, I feel like I needed to just get this out somewhere!
