Hello ljr22,

This procedure is to remove abnormal cells for further investigation, you can read more about LLETZ on our website. When you’re worried that you may have cancer, it can be natural to think the worst, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. Don't be afraid to ask questions at your next appointment as this will help avoid confusion, you can also write down any questions you have and take them with you. You mentioned your mental health has been suffering, so it's important to look after yourself and focus on other things if you can. Anxiety UK has some really useful information. 

I hope this helps,

Moderator Anastasia
