Hi - 6 months ago an abnormal smear picked up CIN1/CIN2 in my cervix and I had a colposcopy/loop excision (local anaesthetic) as treatment. The biopsy showed CIN3.
6 months on I went for a follow-up check but they said I wasn't 'pristine' and spotted a small spot from which they took a smear. This has now shown CIN3 and I'm to go vack for colposcopy and maybe treated on the day (with, I assume, another loop excision).
This all comes on top of cervical diathermy about 5 years ago for cervical erosion.
I am very worried about this now - worried that more 'work' will leave scarring and I may be unable to carry a pregnancy full term, and of course worried that this might be the big C, since they've already 'treated' me once, obviously unsuccessfully.
Sorry to ramble - just wondered if anyone has any thoughts on this or experience of the same thing. Thanks.
