  • Hi Cara01 and welcome to the forum. 

    You're certainly not alone in feeling concerned about the results of your recent cervical screening. Lots of women post here on the forum worried when they receive a letter saying that they have cell changes and HPV but it's important to remember that this is not cervical cancer. 

    We've some information on our website about cervical screening results as well as some information about your upcoming colposcopy. You can also find lots of information on the Jo's Trust website

    If you're still feeling concerned and would like to talk to someone then you could give our team of nurses a call on 0808 800 4040 (monday to Friday 9am to 5pm). 

    Best wishes,
