"Colposcopy LLETZ"

I had been in for Biopsy’s on my cervix and then had to go back for LLETZ treatment on my cervix. My initial biopsy results letter never came through until a few months later, it was only an appointment letter I received so I was unaware of what I was having done when I attended my second appointment following my biopsy. The doctors and nurses were great during my treatment however I feel as though all the pros and cons of the treatment were adequately relayed to me. Following treatment no discharge information was given to me and I ended up having complications and was unsure who to ring. I spoke to the colposcopy clinic and was advised there wasn’t a nurse available to speak to me. I ended up ringing my GP who was unsure as my notes hadn’t been received through for my treatment, however my GP gave me antibiotics. The fact I wasn’t given any discharge information away I was unsure what to expect afterwards and didn’t know if the symptoms I was experiencing were normal. This left me feeling rather upset and confused. Following my LLETZ procedure I was given results a few month later (I was initially told it would be 2 weeks I had to chase this up numerous times with the secretary) that I had indeterminate CIN. The doctor rang me with my results however I felt the conversation was rushed and I had no opportunity to ask questions. I will be ringing my GP for further clarity on my results, as it’s impossible to speak to a nurse/doctor to discuss what my results mean properly.   I wish no other female is left feeling this confused and upset. This could have been avoided with better communication and discharge information.
