So after convincing myself I had cervical cancer, and talking my GP into letting me have a smear test (even though I wasn't due for another 2 years) I got my results today and I don't know how to feel about them.
The results showed borderline changes (but I did bleed during the examination) So the sample was tested for high risk HPV and showed i'm clear of that. So I'm told I can wait the normal 3 years for my next one.
Obviously i'm really pleased to not have HPV but still a bit worried as to what caused the abnormimal result. I know I don't have any other STI's as been checked for everything under the sun, so could it be because I bled?
Has anyone else experinced this? I'm tempted to make an appointment with the GP to talk me through the results but i'm trying to be good and avoid more doctors appointments.
Cheers,
Murdock
