Hello LisWoo, 

It's extremely reassuring that the clinic has called you and said that it looks benign - this sounds very reassuring but I can understand why it has left you wondering why you need to go back and have more checks. I am not sure why they have asked you to come back - perhaps you could ring them and try and find out whether they want to repeat the sample and what kind of tests you are being called back for? I hope that they will be able to reassure you and that you will also hear from other members of our community who have been in a similar position before and that they will share their personal experience with you. 

Our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 and you can ring them Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm and they will be happy to answer your questions on this. 

It does sound like positive news though so fingers crossed this gets confirmed very soon! 

Best wishes,
