Default 2 month long period and heavy

Hello everyone my name is Nikki, 23. I was hoping that someone would be able to help me out. This is embarrassing but here it goes..

I will start out by saying my periods have always been irregular. My doctor always tried to get me on birth control to regulate it but I never actually did. My period started at the end of April. It was brownish in color at first and extremely light. Last week I got the normal signs of starting my period, cramping, crabby, sore breasts. Then my period came and it has been heavier than ever before. I have been changing my tampon every hour or sooner. There have been some clots but it is BRIGHT red. I feel fine, I am just worried that I am bleeding to death. I have never experienced it so bright.

I saw my doctor last month and we ran tests. I am not anemic and I am not pregnant. I go in for an ultrasound on 7/3 to see whats wrong. My doc does not know that my flow became heavier and brighter. Should I contact her? I am really worried because my mother passed away from cervical cancer. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
