Cervical Cancer Worry

Last year for the first time I had an abnormal  hpv smear with no cell changes. One year later, another abnormal  smear but this time moderate cell changes detected. Have to get a coloscopy in two weeks time. Am beyond worried  and so stressed about it all.

  • Hello Scrabble

    I'm sorry to hear that your most recent cervical screening results showed that you have some cell changes. We know that for many women, hearing this news can bring worry and anxiety. We have some information about abnormal cervical cells on our website that may be of help to you. 

    It's good to know that you already have a colposcopy appointment booked and hopefully, the team will be able to give you some reassurance when you see them. In the meantime, I wonder if you might find it beneficial to talk things through with one of our nurses. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, informationtion and support they can. If you'd like to talk with them, they're available Monday to friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch Scrabble and let us know how you get on at your appointment. We're here for you. 

    Best wishes,
