Hi
I recently had a D&C and polypectomy due to symptoms which coincided with a positive hpv and abnormal (low grade) smear.
Turns out the results of the D&C were not good and doc was also surprised.
It’s Adenocarcinoma and after that I haven’t a clue. I’m just scared to be honest. I don’t know what’s in my body. Where it is or how far it’s spread. Google has me written off and i don’t know how I’ll cope between now and my appointment in the mater which I don’t have yet. I only found this out today. Im trying to stay sane and away from Google.
If you could point me in the direction of what to do I would be so grateful
Thanks

I am so sorry to read of the anxious time you are going through at the moment. It is such a difficult stage knowing some information, waiting for further test results and not knowing what treatment will be recommended.
