Cin 3 & Cin 2

I've read some of these forms to get info about test results times and see some people are over worrying, so I though I would share my experience.

in November 2017 I went to my doctors because I was bleeding when I was not meant to be, so she looked at my cervix and said she was sending me down the 2 week cancer path. With in a week I had an appointment at the Colposcopy clinic where they explained what they was doing, as I had it done you can see it all on the screen I see the liquid turn from clear to white, at that point the nurse said they needed to take a biopsy and if it was okay to, at that point I refused because I was so upset I jump off the bed and walked out. The nurses followed me and reassured me the it would be uncomfortable but will not hurt, so I agreed to have it done. After that was done she said I would receive my results in the post with 4 weeks. So off I went and put it to the back of mind I then received my result through the post on the 1st or 2nd December2019 which confirmed I had cin3 and appointment to follow to have lletz treatment done under la, on which I called up to have it under ga on which the the acomadated. So on the 8th December 2017 I went in and ya the operate on the day unit which went really well all clear margins. I then recurved the result back from the lletz 3 weeks later saying that the back of the cells was all clear and that I will have a follow up smear in may 2018. 
I returned to have my smear done in the may which with in 2 weeks I had the results back which was all clear so I thought great all done and over with!

So then again the in November 2019 I was once again sent on the 2 week cancer path just to bleeding agin when not meant to be. So once again and I had my appointment on the 18th December at the colposcopy clinic which they took a biopsy again. I then received my results 2 weeks later which confirmed I had cin 2. So and appointment was make for the 13th January to go in to the day unit again and had them removed again. At which I am sat here writing this 8 hours after being discharged! This time the I have had the tissues removed from my cervix lips and they have sent my samples off urgently and should receive the result back in 2 weeks. While under the general anaesthetic the surgeon also had the 4 x la amp in to my cervix because of scar tissue and bleeding. They also found it hard to do the procedure so the simple 15-30 min operation tools 1hour and 30 mins. And unclear margins. 
but what I am getting at is that don't worrie to much in writing on result because they will come back and if you have treatment on the area do it because it can save u from thing turning worse.
