I Got My Smear Test Done (Yay!)
Other
Yay!! I finally got my smear test done I posted about this previously about whether I should go or not (Virgin/Painful).
I actually had to go for a vaginal swab but nurse and I agreed we will "kill two birds with one stone" and get the cervix checked too.
I was confident but as the day approached I became so nervous when it was time lol
I was expecting for me to bleed.. feel excruciating pain and feel sore afterwards.. but it wasn't bad. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't do it for fun but it was fine. The nurse was so so nice. She guided me through the process, was so gentle and had a great bedside manner.. and because the nurse was kind .. it made me comfortable and relaxed and in turn it was easy for her.
Thought I share this to help anyone else who has not had one ever or in years xx
I'm really pleased you went ahead and got it done! Now you'll know what to expect next time your due. And it really is worth it.
Glad you got it done. I always get mine done. My Granny never had one and she died of cervical cancer so it's really important to me to have mine done.
Well done on getting through it and finding the nerves to go ahead, can't imagine it's a nice thing but still far better than something not being found.
Well done for going to have it done, and well done for raising awareness to other people. I had mine done recently and while I was very nervous and anxious too, the nurse was amazing. Take care
Thanks for sharing your experience with us and well done for going through with it, I'm sure it will all be worth it once those results come back
I remember your previous and advising you to think seriously about going. So glad you went and it was not as bad as you thought it would be. Well done.
Really pleased that you eventually went and has your smear done, you should be proud of yourself, a big hurdle for you .
Thank you for sharing in here. If this line of chat gets one woman to have a smear test who wasn’t going to it’s worth it.
Same with checking your own breasts every month. I know so many people who don’t x
