    Oh Turkish, how awful. Well I had a pap 2 years ago and it was fine. So my doctor said it was best to wait this previous 6 months. If I hadn't had a pap for about 5 years and had abnormalities, they would have recommended a colopscopy straight away at my last appointment.

    Hopefully they have gone back to normal actually! Crossing fingers.

    for me the worst bit was just the indignity of being in stirrups. but results came back normal.

    wear a pad honey, you may have some spotting afterwards. and GL with the results.

    I had a colposcopy and was under general for it (I was CIN 3)> I think it was at least 4 years ago now and Im back on 2 yearly pap smears. Good luck xo

    I had a colposcopy done when i was 21. I also had a cone biopsy done at the time. It did sting, but i was very uptight and nervous. I was between CIN2 and CIN3 so had to then have the cells removed. I didn't have laser, i had a curette to remove them under a general.

    Now, i just have to have paps every 12 months and there hasn't been a problem since.

    Good luck hun. It's a bit of a nerve-racking thing...I remember!
