I had a colposcopy today and was treated for CIN3. I also have HPV.
I had an aggressive Breast Cancer 5 years ago so I have this history of my cells being abnormal. At my breast exam the tumour I had was assumed to be benign until they aspirated the tissue and I was given an instant cancer diagnosis on the basis of the cells appearance. 

I know CIN3 is not cancer and I know the likelihood of this being cancer is statistically very small. The problem is that my risk for cancer last time was small too and I still got it. It had spread to my lymph nodes too. 

I am scared of what has happened already. The Dr sent my biopsy results away marked urgent. He says he will phone me if the results are not good. I'd had my smear postponed 10 months ago due to lockdown. He is concerned that I have moved from a normal smear to high grade in such a relatively short time. 

I know I have to wait for my results but I am scared and trying not to be.
