low grade dsyskaryosis and HPV positive - i am PETRIFIED

I got my results tuesday, and flew into a fit of panic and iv bearly been able to eat anything i got my hospital letter for the colposcopy two days later gor the date 10th june

I am so scared i cant stop crying im 25 in july and i have two young children, and iv read so much reasuring things but i can not shake this fear 

I was wondering what results people have had after having the colposcopy im so scared i have something thats going to take me away from my kids

I did the stupidist thing and had a look on facebook for reasurig stories really and i found nothing good! I had convinced myself that the low grade was a good sign but im not sure if it is i dont k ow what to doi cant wait that long for an appointment and if i need a biopsy ill have to wait even longer and i cant take it i suffered with bad health anxiety after losing my nan and being in a mentally abusive relationship

I have only just started to feel amaizing and happy and looking forward to the future 

But since getting my letter iv totally reverted back i spent all day in my bed on the internet looking for reassurance iv read me letter 100 times

And now iv stressed so much i have a head cold, can anyone help me with this. Could this be serious could i be in trouble im beating myself into thinking high grade would be worse but i just dont know 

I keep making awful scenarios in my head that i shouldnt be thinking its awful!

  • Hi MissHHM,

    I know you posted in Ask the Nurses and I am not one. But I wanted to just say, take a breath,lay off the internet searching and try to relax. Lots of women have HPV, I did (probably still do, it just wasn't active at my last smear). You are doing the right thing, getting yourself checked out and getting the colposcopy(I've had those, too). If there is anything that needs attention, you will find out and get it taken care of. 

    I know you will worry but try to think of it as taking control of your health.  Good luck and let us know how you do.
