2nd smear Borderline coming up!

[Stormsky]

I agree. I was diagnosed with CIN1 as of last year. As long as you get monitored on a yearly basis..(going to your gyno for pap smears)..you will be fine.

Did the doctor preform a colposcopy?

Had to go to hospital for the colposcopy.. done under local anaseptic

i have had 2 abnormal smear and just now got to go back again, i too was worried but i think is just a case of monitoring me.

Don't worry I've had this, you have to have a colposcopy where they examine your cervix and then if they feel they need to they will remove the abnormal cells under local anaesthetic. It's uncomfortable but not too much of an ordeal. It's completely treatable. This is why we have smears! so that we can find out very quickly if anything isn't 100% right and then they sort it out for you. Both my mum and sister have had this as well and had treatment and we've all being absolutely fine ever since.

For those in the UK, the NHS doctors were absolutely lovely and very efficient.
