    Hey Maud,

    ?just to reassure you I had something similar last year (small spotting and period pain) 18 months after my last period. I was sent for abdominal /pelvis ultrasound and transvaginal and all was fine.

    My GP said this can just happen....as if we didn't have enough to put up with!

    You are doing the right thing for peace of mind in getting things checked out  - I hope you can get seen soon as the waiting around is the hard bit.

    ?Take care of yourself and it will all be behind you soon x

      That is so good to hear Maud. I told you not to panic and that it was likely nothing to worry about! And its good that they are totally on it so if anything happens again they will be on it early doors and get it sorted. So very happy that you are ok. Remember, here anytime for you. XXX

    Don't worry Maud. This has happened to many of us. I had to go for a scan and biopsy when it happened to me. Hasn't happened again and I hope it never does!
