So it's been nearly over a year since I last posted on here.. And things have changed.
I went to Florida in December, came home celebrated Christmas with my family. Actually managed to stay off work.
Second year of my nursing degree and my god it has been trying, and some points I wanted to quit. However got my shit together finish my second to last placement an got signed off.
I then got that dreaded letter of my cervical smear test.. which really wasn't much to dread until I received my results. I was told I had abnormal cells, which needed further investigation. Thankfully my mother has been so supportive along with friends and i got seen quickly. I went on to have a colposcopy, which is where they take a biopsy.. Things went from bad to worse 2 weeks later I had a dreaded phone call telling me i had abnormal cells, which were on the high end and could lead to cancer and I needed to go and have a procedure to remove them. Within a week I was in hospital having my procedure to remove those pesky cells, luckily my nurse was very kind and calming. I was in and out within a couple of hours thank god. It's now been over 4 weeks since the procedure, I'm so grateful I had my smear before 25. I honestly think it should be done at an earlier age.. Morale of the story when you get your letter for your smear, go have it girls! I'm due my 6 monthly check up in October which hopefully i'll get the all clear.
Finally, I'm in my last placement of second year my exams have all been completed. I can not wait to finish this year, and be on the countdown to next July!
Anyways until next time
