Recently diagnosed with cell changes & hpv after routine screening which meant I had to have a lletz procedure & 3 month follow up colposcopy because of discrepancy in results; at first there was high grade severe dyskaryosis and they found a benign polyp & cyst at 1st colposcopy & biopsy revealed hpv & mild cell changes. Second colposcopy all looked well but awaiting results of test which should arrive in 3 weeks. Been a rollercoaster ride. Never had abnormal cells before & am 55. I know I'm fortunate they found changes rather than something more sinister. However it doesn't feel good to know that my cancer risk is higher than average and feel stressed. Am having counselling but felt the need to vent. Need to get my head around the reality of my situation. It's shaken me up & changed my world view. Think I will feel better once I get the results of my most recent screening test. With the last one I got a phone call out of the blue for an urgent 2 week appointment at the hospital which also shook me up! Still feels rather surreal !

Hi JaneAustenfan and welcome to the online community
I haven't had the procedures and tests that you have had but do recognise the worry of waiting for test results. Hopefully everything will turn out to be okay but do come back and let us know how you got on.
