A bit personal UPDATE
I went for a smear about 10 days ago and recieved a letter this morning saying that I had an abnormal result and need to go to hospital for further tests. I have been asked to call within 2 working days which is making me thinks they know something is wrong. I have told my hubby and my mum but I cant really talk to them about it, does anyone have any experience of this? Amy x

Also remember that even if it is something the main thing is you are catching it early so it can be treated.
I really really need to get mine done as I am way over due.
Let us know how you get on hun, big hugs! x
I've had this once and it just needed retesting. A friend had this 3 yrs ago and had 2nd test. It picked something up [pre-cancerous cells] and she had them blasted. She now has an 18month old and is preggers. So was all fine as was picked up early:\)
Hope you get it sorted out soon.
I completely understand why you'd be worried but I'm sure the fact they've noticed it in a standard test ( not a test done because you're experiencing symptoms) would mean anything picked up is early and treatable - should it need to be.
I would hate having to wait for gp hours for info, could you not ring nhs direct, I'm sure they'd be happy to talk through what the letter means etc, I'm pretty sure you can chat on the phone or online now too.
Good luck and hope it's all standard and ok. X

I am so going to book in for a smear test now, I have been putting it off for ages which is so silly considering what the alternative may be.
As Ali says, try not to worry too much (easier said then done I am sure) and come and chat to us lot about it whenever you need to. My fingers are firmly crossed that everything will be just fine for you, big hugs xxx
I too need to booked an appointment ASAP, with irregular periods and a lack of appointments it's always a nightmare getting one, but no more excuses!
I'm so sorry, you must be having a very stressful time with the waiting but I'm glad you have been more informed and therefore in a sense more in control mentally to the goings on. Its great that it's been found and being dealt with so quickly and they know the options for whatever the results may be. Hope you've found lots of things to occupy your time as you do the waiting game and having everything crossed it's best case and also your 'perforated womb' was nothing.
Take care x
just wanted to say good luck - and my friend had they same and ended up having the laser thing, she said it did hurt but not like agony just not pleasant but better to have it done!!!
