@KenBerg20395742 @chat_annie@SButlerHughes @ST__Ireland @221plus@PhelanVicky I do not want to argue with you about it. I have no douth it's complex however its the degree of changes/error and the number.. jumping from negative to query cancer/high grade 4 times, year on year.. You mention it's a probability...
@NobleGuardianIE Not in my experience or anyone I know involved. I had 4 misreads all went to the same lab year on year and upgraded two from negative to P9 the highest grade (query cancer) so obvious it was questioned did anyone look at them at all.
@KenBerg20395742 @SButlerHughes @ST__Ireland @221plus@PhelanVicky Woman and Dr's relied 100% on smear results. When symptoms developed CC was ruled out because of previous negative smears... I understand the limitations of screening but in the majority of the 221 they were not limitations, there were such significant errors.
@KenBerg20395742 @SButlerHughes @ST__Ireland @221plus@PhelanVicky I'm sorry to hear you lost someone to Cervical Cancer. We want the same thing, a screening program that is fit for purpose.. As Dr Scally said it was "doomed to fail", we need better for our daughters, sisters, wives, aunts. Her statement was insensitive cruel and unnecessary.
@KenBerg20395742 @SButlerHughes @ST__Ireland @221plus@PhelanVicky I had 4 smears were sent to the same lab year on year. They were all reported as negative when in fact they were all misread & converted to P9 the highest grade/query cancer. It asks the question where they even looked at it was that obvious... Is that limatitions screening?
@NobleGuardianIE @deljrie @clairemariamac I was replying to your statement "which are January clinically insignificant" I'm presuming when you said January you mean generally... Stage 1 cervical cancer is no joke, resulting in loss of fertility for most..
@NobleGuardianIE @deljrie @clairemariamac You said they are not accurately quoting her.. Here is what she said "the tribunal set up by the Government to facilitate claims from women was important because the women who had stage one cancer “probably know in [their] heart and soul that [they] haven’t been wronged,”
@NobleGuardianIE @deljrie @clairemariamac Hysterectomy is clinically insignificant, tell that to the 100s of women who were left infertile.. I glad she delivered your baby safely a wonderful experience denied to so many 💔
@NobleGuardianIE@KateB49908222 @aoifegracemoore @Toibin1 A hysterectomy is a minimal clinical impact?? The majority of stage 1 patients will have at a minimum a hysterectomy leading to loss of fertility..
