I dont know about you all, but it can be so frustrating at times after you have a pap smear come back abnormal and they tell you to wait for another 6 months. I just want this over with. I want to be able to have kids and live a happy healthy life and not have to worry about this in the background.
Have many of you had CIN III cells and had abnormal paps after you have a LEEP procedure? what have you had to do?
I am Really lost, cant talk to anyone. I was told to go for laser as it will clear it better compared to the rest of the procedure. After gynae, reached home, there are more blood after ultrasound. I got really freak out as I have the similar signs of cervical cancer after reading it online!!
What else can I do?
So I am glad I found this site to discuss with others that have similar issues. Last month was possibly one of the worse months ever, I found out that I have HPV and my pap came back abnormal. I had the colpo done and leep (In which I was not put under at all, the numbed my cervix and I didn't feel a thing?) However the biopsy she did with the leep came back with carcinoma in sito. I have a follow up today and am pretty freaked out. I am 26 and I do have a 3 year old son.... Part of me just wants them to do the hysterectomy but that freaks me out too... thank you for letting me vent.
I thought the LEEP rocedure personally was a lot less painful then the coloscopy! I was awake through the Leep. He numbed the area up with a shot. The Leep smells a bit but it's more or less, a pressure than pain. I went home and slept. Following the Leep you feel uncomfortable down below. I took a xanax which helped as well. I had a Leep tho, and the first pap following came back normal. Now I am in a similar situation....back to abnormal.
I had my first abnormal pap back in jan followed by a colposcopy a few weeks later and it showed CIN1. The doctor wanted to see if my body would heal itself and checked me again in August and I had an abnormal pap again and the colpo showed CIN3. I just had my LEEP done and waiting for the results to come back. If there are any negative signs or a bad pap after this my only option is for a hysterectomy. I just beat AML leukemia last year and now this.....I'M NOT EVEN 30 YET!!!
Kaycee -- how are you doing today. Your story is exactly like mine except I just scheduled the Leep procedure for next week. I'm scared. Please tell me how yours turned. Thank you
My dr didn't out me to sleep for my leep procedure and it was very painful. I have to go back on Wednesday because I had another abnormal pap. I am terrified they will tell me I have to have another leep.
I had the leep done the week before my 23rd birthday and i am now 25. it has been 2.5 years. at my first check up in late december my doc said it was all removed in the procedure. but when i went in for my annual last may she said abnormal again. i requested to wait a year before doing any further things because both of those paps [the first visit and the annual] hurt so bad. honestly i had never felt any pain through any pap prior to the leep. supposedly my cervix had scarred shut just right. i am very nervous and anxious to have my annual tomorrow afternoon. i havent slept well all week. my fingers are just crossed that it doesnt hurt so i can rock out some hope that i can go another year without having to go through what i went through when i had the first leep done. i knew its was probably too late but i did complete the three shot series post leep procedure. i have been with the same guy now for 3.5 years and i have no intentions or feelings that will change. for being in a newer relationship that man continued by my side even without "rewards" for a seeming long period. I feel like this time is going to be a negitive to the abnormal. I am crossing my fingers. and i will keep them crossed for all of you.
