Can I just ask a question, I had pre cancerous cells lasered about 7 years ago, when they got the results after I was told they had removed them with clear margins and I was fine to go back to normal routine smears, I’m just sitting here out of the blue worrying because at my last smear I was told I was negative for Hpv virus and that the cells haven’t been tested becoasebi don’t have Hpv and that this is the new way of testing - but I’m just thinking if I have had cells before because I HAD the virus how do they know the cells haven’t come back just because I no longer have hpv
