How do you feel when you open that letter? Or when the reminder pings on your phone?

I dreaded my cervical smear test for years. It’s never as terrifying as I imagine. In fact, it isn’t scary at all. I wrote about what actually happens at a cervical screening.

Had my smear test today and it was pretty awful (the staff were lovely but it took like half an hour which was bad and obviously uncomfortable).

Ever since I’ve been dizzy especially on changing position (laying to sit, sit to stand, stand to sit etc). This wasn’t an issue before. I thought maybe I just needed food and a nap so I tried both and I’m still dizzy. Naturally gp is now closed.

Anyone know what this is and how to make it stop? #smearTest

This week is Cervical Cancer Prevention Week and the time is now to get checked out.

I'm having a well deserved Southern Comfort and Coke (or 2 or more) after being a responsible cervix owner and going to my regular cervical screening!

All cervix owners of the appropriate age should make sure they make their 3 yearly appointment for this! Cancer screening saves lives! #cervicalscreening #smeartest #cancerscreening #cancer
