Hey,
I just had my smear test results and I have high grade severe dykorsosis.
I am panicking so badly thinking the worse. Thinking I have the big C. I haven't stopped crying since I've got the results. I've got a coloscopy on Wednesday next week. Has anyone else had this? I had HPV for quite a few years now, last year I had to have a coloscopy as my smear came back showing abnormal cells, when I went there the doctor said my body should heal these and to have another in a year. How has it gone from only slight abnormal changes to severe?
I am so scared, it is consuming me and honestly controlling my every thought.
Another night of not sleeping.
I pray someone else is online and can speak to me regarding this tonight!
Thank you so much for reading. I've never once posted on a forum before but I am so fed up with family and friends not understanding how I feel.

I didn’t have a feeling of bloating at any time before I was diagnosed, and I don’t read about it in the group as being a symptom. Abnormal bleeding CAN be, but you say you have regular periods. You haven’t mentioned anything so far that sounds concerning.
I suspect in your panic you might be looking for symptoms which your anxiety is making you think MIGHT point to a cervical cancer diagnosis, but as I’ve said abnormal cells do not mean cancer.

I’d highly recommend calling the Macmillan support line tomorrow-the number is in my signature. You would be able to speak to a nurse and they might be able to reassure you?
