Hi all, I've been on this forum 24/7 for the last 6 days reading everything
just hoping to hear if anyone had similar stories?
I had a severe high grade dysplasia +hpv on pap, was referred to colposcopy within 10 days but managed to get myself in 4 days after the letter.. was such a mess 24/7.
had lletz done right away, at first the doctor thought I might not need it but then after getting me in the chair said "we definitely need a treatment today!"
after it was done she said it does not look like cancer to her but won't know for sure until after the biopsy results come in, and that I might need another treatment!
totally confused with her wording but I was in such a state I could not process it all & ask questions right awaylike another treatment like chemo or another lletz?? also overheard while going to get dressed the nurse asking the doc something about me doing something through THEM?and the doc said "no she will do it through her gp" something like that.
prior to this been having cc symptoms for almost two years, gp and emergency department basically said it was all in my head for 2 whole years I was in and out of gps and a&e over 20 times then that smear test came back to basically confirm what I have always suspected?
just wondering if the colposcopist has to say if it's cancer or do they not tell if it is so that you can be less anxious while awaiting biopsies results?
Will appreciate anyones input & stories having a real hard time mentallyx
