I am so sorry to hear of your news but obviously delighted that everything is looking far more positive for you. I was diagnosed with CIN3 and severe dyskaryosis in June 2004 and it really was the most horrendous time of my life so I completely understand what you are going through. I was fortunate that my cell changes had not turned cancerous but I was very close and it was all because I kept putting off having a smear test done. Thankfully all my results have come back clear since my operation but I still worry when my appointment comes up. I have badgered my friends for years to keep their appointments because I would hate it if someone else had to go through the fear that I went through so thank you for posting and sharing your story. Take care and good luck. xx

You're OK Hon All that CIN3 means is that the 'abnormal' Pre-Cancerous cells are showing across the whole area of the skin covering your cervix rather than just in one small area.

Although Pre-Cancerous cells are called Pre-Cancerous, that actually doesn't mean that they are necessarily going to turn cancerous at all The truth is that they just don't know whether they will or whether they will go away by themselves .... so they tend do do colcoscopies (laser treatment) anyway.

Try to insist that your consultant does an HPV test, as that will give you a better idea of whether you are really at risk or not - there's a whole thread on HPV here https://www.babyandbump.com/girly-sanctuary/405644-hollyoaks-cervical-cancer-storyline.html

I hope that helps, but if you want to ask questions, or even just talk then feel free to PM me

I think you are so brave.

I am so frightened of any type of cancer(as is everyone)
I booked myself a smear test just before I got pregnant with my lo at age 22, and when I arrived at the appointment the nurse refused to do it as I was not the aquired age.

Good luck with everything hunny xxx
