A mum-of-two said she knew something "wasn't right" when the hospital called her after a routine test.
Mum of two Sophie Banawich from Kirkby went for a routine smear test when she was 25, which returned abnormal cells. Following this, the 30-year-old had routine yearly smears at Liverpool Women’s Hospital and in February 2022, more abnormal cells were detected and Sophie underwent a procedure to remove them.
A follow-up smear following surgery found further abnormal cells, and so Sophie went through the procedure again. She said she knew something wasn't right when the hospital called her back.
