Cervical Cancer and Infertility
Hi. I hope you can learn an important lesson from what happened to me. Three months after my second marriage in 1993, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. The oncologist insisted on doing a laporoscopy to make sure I didn't have any other damage that could prohibit me from becoming pregnant. She was also supposed to do…

Does anyone have any suggestions to help me keep my…

Slow Test Results?
I was just diagnosed with moderate displaysia. It took nearly 4 weeks to get the results of my PAP back. The Dr. called me to schedule an appointment right away because she felt it was very important to begin treatment immediately.

sex and precancer
I've been diagnosed with severe dysplasia and am scheduled to have a minor surgery (LEEP) at the end of this month. I was wondering how this procedure will affect my sex life, if at all. Will sex feel different? I've noticed that since my biopsy, I've had a heightened sensitivity (not painful...just surprising). Thank you.

Are Biopsies Painfull?
I will have a biopsy done in one week. My question is, "Will it hurt much?" My one year exam, after my twins were born via c-section, showed precancerous cells. I feel like a little kid. They called me two weeks ago, and I have one more week to wait. I find myself more afraid of pain than results! Ha! Also, how long does…
