Really worried

So last year, I had my 3 yearly regular smear which shown HPV Positive and borderline changes, I went for a colposcopy where no treatment was done and they just wanted the smear repeated in 12 months. Fast forward to now, I had my smear about 3-4 weeks ago, popped in the drs this morning for my depo so I asked if any results were back, where she said yes they were uploaded to their system yesterday. Now it’s showing HPV positive again, with severe high grade changes. I’m so worried at such a huge change in the cells in 12 months!? Has anyone else had this?? I haven’t received any letter yet, she said the hospital are writing to me. I’m just so worried.

  • Hiya Emily,

    I'm in the same boat as you, although I haven't had a smear done in 5 years and had 4 babies naturally, my youngest being 5 months old I got my smear test done in November and got my results back beginning January. I'm high risk HPV with severe cell changes. Booked in for a colposcopy this coming Wednesday. I will let you know the outcome of it to hopefully ease your mind as I'm hoping the outcome will be ok for me. Unfortunately I have been getting stomach pains, bleeding etc and going for a pelvic ultrasound tomorrow to rule out ovarian cancer and I am bricking it, I'm only 29! But as my doctor said these are just precautionary measures and it doesn't mean anything sinister is going on.
