When Rosie opened a letter and saw the words ‘abnormal cells’ she felt pure panic.
‘I didn’t think I’d be told that way,’ the 38-year-old tells Metro. ‘No one explained what those words actually meant. All I got was a number to make an appointment for a procedure to remove them.’
The letter, which Rosie Dixon received in 2018, was inviting her to undergo a large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) to remove some pre-cancerous cells discovered in her cervix.
When she made the appointment, she claims there was no room to question the procedure because she was funnelled through an efficient ‘conveyor belt’ system to remove them.
