It’s nice to learn personal stories with additional details, when i have had changes and ‘symptoms’ but We have not a clue if they are related to cervical cancer or not- .. like I have upper back pain, pelvic pain, some slight changes in bleeding and pain during intercourse and more frequent urination however the descriptions of symptoms are so general it really causes it to be difficult to not worry or over respond to every little pain.
