beatlesfreak61, I am glad that you are going to see a doctor about your intimacy issues with your husband. My hunch is that he/she will suggest that you seek either individual or better yet couples counseling from a therapist. It does sound like you can use some help in sorting out all of the factors that could be affecting your relationship with your husband.

I am not sure what "cerical cancer" is... I assume you meant Cervical Cancer? If so, I can move this topic to the correct forum.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
