GP Request

Hello there, I'm new so I apologise if this is under the wrong topic etc..

Just looking for some reassurance really.

My last few smears have shown abnormal cells and hpv presence and so I was referred to colposcopy where they informed me only very small changes have occurred but they did another smear. I have now had a letter from gp requiring to make an appointment. Any clues why that could be? 

Thankyou xx

  • Hi BlueJ and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    Unfortunately no-one here can answer this question, but try not to jump to any conclusions or worst case scenarios if you can. Always easier said than done I know but there could be many reasons why the GP has asked you to make this appointment.

    Our members know how tough this time can be so hopefully some of them will be along soon to offer their support but in the meantime, if you'd like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. 

    Good luck with your appointment BlueJ. We'll have our fingers crossed for good news.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
