I went today for a colposcopy. The worst experience in a very long time. Nearly every member of staff was rude, condescending and hurried in everything they said and did. I have no idea whats happening. Two things that will stick with me for a very long time: telling the doctor that I was in a lot of pain and his response being "no you aren't" and that apparently theres a 95% risk of cancer but nothing will be done about it until the biopsy comes back in 4-6 weeks! I was also told the opposite to what was written in the pamphlet they gave me and told that the pain would disappear in minutes. 19 hours later I can't sleep due to the pain being so intense even with strong painkillers.
