Colposcopy and Lletz treatment

Hi All

 

I am 26 years old and getting married next year and received a letter back from my first smear saying I had high risk HPV and moderate abnormal cell changes. Obviously this immediately sends you into panic mode.. I have read up and would assume that at my Colposcopy on Friday they might also want to do the Lletz treatment? Can anyone put my mind at ease with the Lletz treatment please? I am awful with anything to do with hospitals, blood, injections etc etc. I just want to feel less nervous about going so I can get some sleep and not feel so sick about it! 

 

Thanks :)

    Hi Ana,

    Thank you so much for your reply. I have been a nervous reck today, thinking about it! I was the same before the colposcopy last time. I have been that anxious about this treatment that I cancelled my first appointment for it . Your reply has really helped me though and put my mind at ease, thank you again x
