my paps have been slightly abnormal last three years (after chemo and tamoxifen)... no one ever told me there was any connection, but i've suspected there is.
now i've gotten so it doesn't bother me any more and am overdue for my pap test by about six months. who knows? maybe it will clear up, maybe not. just another abnormal thing to wonder about, not worry too much about ;-)
love

    Dear Love,
    I do know how you feel. I too have had this happen to me. One thing I would like to remind you that you have to be dilligent in watching over yourself for no one else will. I made sure until such time as I was healthier that I kept on seeing doctors and having tests to insure me of a life.
    It has been only lately that I haven't needed to go to the doctor constantly and I am enjoying it. We have to fight for the quality of life we can live with and flourish with.
