im 47,went for a scan due to feeling a lump on my cervix, i explained to the lady at the hospital, she said the doctor sent you for a pelvic scan and that she wont be able to see my servix with this scan,that i would need a different scan to see the cervix.she carried on with the pelvic scan and found a fibroid 6cm ,i have always had very heavy pieriods and thought it was just me,i constantly feel tired and ill,anyway went back to the doctors to dicuss the results,she said you have a fibroid,and that she wasnt worried about it,she said i could leave it as it will shrink when i reach the menopaurse or i could have it cut out,the doctor diddnt seem interested at all i asked about the bleeding she said you could have a coil fitted if you wont i said dont bother,i hade to ask for a blood test for aniemia witch she done,im awaiting the results.i told her that the doctor couldnt see my servix with the scan that i had,my doctor said i will send you for another scan if you wont,i said to leave it as my smear test was ok do you think i should have been refered to a specialist for this
