I am slightly confused at the moment.
I just got a letter saying my pap test is over due (last time was Oct 08) I had it done by a Gyno who told me I needed another one in Oct 10 (2yrs later) which I thought was the norm. So why does this letter say I am due now not even 18motns later. My one in Oct was normal.
In 07 after the birth of my DD at my postnatal check up my pap test said it showed minor cell changes. Then I had it repeated and it was normal. The Gyno said it was from pregnancy hormones and I do not have HPV (which is suppose to cause the cervical cancer and at the time all the info on HPV and the Gardosil vaccination was coming out) so I was freaking out thats what it was.
Anyhow now do I go have another one or wait for the 2yrs until the Gyno said I was due again? I had a lap in November and I questioned the Gyno then about having another pap test (as he was going to be down there anyway) and he said I was right till Oct 2010 (in which time I hope to be pregnant but I am not holding my breath) After the op he told me my cervix looked perfect and when talking to him (I know him personally ) he said that the cervix with cell changes or Cin what ever do not look normal.
Any advise is appreciated. I have been back and forth to the Gyno that much I was looking forward to not seeing them for another few months (due to fertility problems) so do I run of and have it done just to be safe or take there advise and wait until I am due according to the Gyno?
I live in a small town and GP's aren't an option although I could possibly go to the nurse (whom I also know) but they only do it monthly. What to do?
