Hey all

Today I had my first cervical smear, after putting it off for years because I was frightened


As you all know cervical smear tests are important to make sure our women's bits are ticking over nicely and to make sure we're all in tip top shape.

It's estimated that screening for cervical cancer using the smear test saves up to 6,000 lives a year in the UK!

So I have been really frightened about having my smear test and thinking "oh no!! they're going to be poking about in my lady's place!"

But I was worrying over nothing, the nurse was lovely, explained what the procedure was like, told me what she was going to do etc.

I went behind the curtain, took my trousers and knickers off and got onto the bed. She then put a sheet over me from my tummy to my thighs, and got me to rest one leg against the wall and the other against her.

I didn't feel rude or embarrassed. She told me to take some deep breaths and said that if I relaxed my muscles then it'd be much easier.
So I just took some deep breaths and relaxed, I was quite comfy actually!


Then she talked me through what she was doing, said she was putting the speculum in- "whoooop, it's in!" hooray then said she was gonna open it up "oooh, it's open!" hooray, then that she was gonna take a sample of cells, and that was it!

Phew! No problem!

I wish I'd been brave enough to have it done ages ago, but now I know that it's nothing to worry about.

So ladies, if you haven't already, get yourself down the docs, get your knickers off and get checked! it only takes a minute or two!

Yeah, I always have had some sympathy for the poor doctors and nurses out there! I can't imagine getting up some day when I feel a bit pissy or under the weather, and oh joy, having to go do that... My doctor and I share a slightly twisted humour, so we usually make sarcastic comments at each other and laugh to lighten the experience.
