What Are The Effects Of Untreated Beginning Stages Of Cervical Cancer?

About 5 years ago I was told I had the beginning stages of cervical cancer. I was young and stupid and didn t do anything about it. The last few days, I have had a discomfort in my lower stomach. Kinda feels like there s something there that isn t supposed to be. My seat belt hits in just the right place to push against were it hurts , if I don t sit down slowly it hurts, or if I bend or turn at my hips it hurts. I have a doctor s appointment scheduled for Thursday, but this discomfort is getting a little more uncomfortable each day. I don t want to call it a pain, because it doesn t really hurt, it just makes me uncomfortable.

Thanks for your question on HCM.
Cervical cancer carries excellent prognosis if early detection and surgery is done.
Since its been five years from the diagnosis, I think your cancer must have grown locally and spread to distal organs too.
So your present symptoms are mostly due to local worsening of cancer. May be ulcer or mass or prolapse can cause you symptoms.
In depth gynecological examination is needed to rule out local disease.
You should also get done biopsy of cervix, abdominal CT scan,PET scan to diagnose staging of cancer.
So better to consult oncologist and discuss all these.
