Hi all - yes posting in Christmas day but I'm just worrying and thinking all the time. 

I had a smear recently and the result said positive HPV. They booked me in for a coloscopy and when I spoke to the reception they said mine was low risk - but this wasn't mentioned in my letter. My husband kindly gave me genital warts - we have moved past this and they don't really affect me much but the doctor said it would be a different strain of HPV to show up in a smear test. I also (as of today when checking mirena as have had break though bleeds recently) discovered a small lump half way up the outside of my cervix - I appreciate this might be a cyst and that they are quite common, but the worry is overwhelming. I have 2 small children and, like most mothers, I tend to worry A LOT. This combined with pelvic pain on and off for then last 2 years which was deemed as Sacriolitis with no further investigation has left me panicking. 

Anyone else had these combined issues? My last smear test 3 years ago was fine- when did they start testing for HPV? 

Any thoughts would be helpful as I can't really discuss this with the family as don't want to worry them unduly. 

Thank you
