Hi, 

I could really do with some reassurance or information. Last year I went for my first smear (I'm 25) it came back hpv positive but no cell changes so I was invited to come back this year to have another smear test. I had this done back in May and on the 30th May got my results which said hpv positive and some cell changes known as boarderline changes have been found.

I have been freaking out and Googled it.... Big mistake! Ended up in a huge state! 

When having my smear the nurse said she could see a small cyst on my cervix too but said that was completely normal but now I'm scared incase that's something to do with my abnormal result! 

I am booked in for a colposcopy on Thursday 3rd September (so in 2 days time, 6 weeks from recieving my results) I've been calmer up till now and not really thought about it after my initial break down about it but now it's in 2 days I am going out of my mind. 

Also, in case I have to have a biopsy, do they hurt? 

I feel like I just want to be the most prepared. I don't want to get upset in the appointment but my anxiety is through the roof at the moment about this. 

Me and my partner would love to start trying for a family this year, do I need to put this on hold?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
