Abnormal smear test

Thank you all
It was so simple and painless and yes blowing air bubbles was the side effect lol

I had cryosurgery 42 years ago, abnormal cells were frozen off, I felt nothing at all. I remember getting out of the car when we got home and audibly blowing bubbles much to DH and my amusement.

I had it done 20 years ago and don't recall there being any discomfort. Best wishes!

I have had it done, don't remember any pain or discomfort just the awful smell of burning. Everything was normal afterward.

I had a colposcopy in 1999 when I was 42, and once the samples had been analysed, it was recommended I have a cone biopsy. Unfortunately I bled a lot afterwards and they were quite concerned, I was scared.

I was an older mother at 37 and 39, and my daugher was only two and a half when I developed the precancerous cells.

Have a look at this site, it is very clear. Were you given a leaflet?

Thank you ladies going to bed feeling happy and reassured xx

I had this in 1986 under a GA. Kiss your worries goodbye. Perfectly fine smear results after that.

WHY does the phone change words??? Laser treatment for goodness sake - not laxer or later!

I’d had CIN3 cells to back in 1989 - had a cone biopsy. There were still some cells when I had the next smear which resulted in laxer treatment. As others have said, a bit uncomfortable and the smell of burning/singeing.

Oh thank you ladies what kind of surgery was needed Shandy 37 ?

Good luck, I am glad you can have this done. I had CIN3 cells and the consultant recommended surgery instead.

Do take some soft Dr White sanitary towels from the chemist, the surgery ones are hard and uncomfortable.

I also had this 40 years ago. I think it was slightly, only slightly uncomfortable but over very quickly. I remember a smell of burning though……x

Oh thanks you for taking the time to reply I only had the phone call Friday saying it needs to be done and I'm really praying that will be the end of it as I'm 63 and not the dreaded C x

I had it done about 30 years ago. I had a nice nurse sitting and talking to me the whole time. It didn't take very long and wasn't particularly uncomfortable. I do remember a slight smell of burning!

Hi Mary59nana!

I had this done years ago. My consultant sang to me and the nurse held my hand and I didn't feel a thing.

Good luck!
