Hello Lou35 and thank you for posting a question. I am sorry to learn about your situation it does sound like you have been through a lot.

Unfortunately I don't think that I can shed a great deal of light on your individual situation, as I am not involved in your care and do not know your full details. It might be worth trying to speak with someone at the colonoscopy unit.  But I can appreciate that it is not always easy to get through.

While it is certainly disappointing that you still have abnormal cervical cells, your medical team will have come across this before and they will discuss a plan of action about how best to manage your situation. Usually women with abnormal cells only need one treatment to remove the abnormal cells and things go back to normal. But for a few women this is not always enough and sometimes they need a further treatment which hopefully sorts things out.  Sometimes the  cells can be monitored rather than treated right away..  But regardless of what is decided, it is important to remember that cervical screening is all about preventing cervical cancer. You are in the system, so it is unlikely that anything serious will happen

However, I can appreciate that the though of possibly needing more treatment is probably a bit unnerving in view of you having side effects before.  But I hope that this reply is of some help and if you can try not to worry as this is a problem that is likely to be sorted out. 

Please get back to us if you have any other questions.  If you would like to telephone the number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind regards,

Jean
