Hello Amarie1994 and thanks for posting, 

I am sorry to learn that you have had problems since your LLETZ procedure. I don't know what might be causing this leg pain and the dragging sensation and am pleased you have already seen your GP.  I think it would be a good idea to get back in touch with them if this has got worse. It can be hard to tell sometimes if new symptoms are related to a recent procedure or might have happened anyway, but it seems likely that there is a link. I hope the swab results come back soon and that things improve for you. 

Mostly, the results of the tissue examination after a LLETZ confirm the colposcopist's impression and broadly match what the cell sample from the smear/brush looked like in terms of abnormality. Strictly speaking CIN can only be accurately assessed with a tissue biopsy, this is because it measures the depth of the abnormal cells - a cross section of tissue is needed to be able to do this. I have heard of this sort of discrepancy happening before but it isn't all that common. Hopefully this will be reviewed and your gynae will be able to explain a bit more soon. 

Give us a call if you want to talk anything over. Our number is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and we are here weekdays, 9-5. 

Best wishes,

Julia
