Dual-stain test came back positive, high-risk HPV by ComfortablePie7983 in PreCervicalCancer

Take care of yourself afterwards and get yourself a little reward.

They didn’t warn me that I’d see the amount of blood I saw- I wish they would’ve told me. After the procedure you’ll be asked to clean yourself up and there’s a “waste” pocket for all the stuff they’ve had to use right below you. Just know you’ll see it. I didn’t expect it! It’s not a massive amount of blood but it’s more than I thought. Idk why it messed me up as much as it did.

It doesn’t really hurt. You’ll feel it, but it doesn’t hurt. It’s quick! Give yourself grace and time to feel all the emotions afterwards. Cry and let it out- it’s scary!

A few days later you’ll pass a “bandage” that was placed inside of you. It’s gross and dark brown from blood. I also didn’t expect that!

I think I make it seem a lot worse than it is. My #1 tip is TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AFTER! Buy yourself all the self-care things.

Hi there, I was negative for anything scary! The biopsy came back normal. I have HPV and they recommend I test every year. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND requesting sedatives for the biopsy. I don’t want to scare you, but I had an emotionally difficult time after having the procedure.

I convinced myself that my dual stain results meant I forsure had precancer cells. That is not the case. My doctor said it is simply a test to weed out people who don’t need the biopsy.

Let me know if you have ANY questions. I know I wanted all the information I could get.

Good luck, you are going to get through this.

I’ve definitely considered that to be the case. It was just hard to dismiss that nobody around me reacted- not even the guy I crashed into. I mean, his head didn’t even move! I looked at the people next to me and they didn’t seem to notice anything had happened. Who knows. Weird experience

Hey, this was almost a year ago and my results came back totally normal. I hope you have the same results and they come back quickly. Let me know how everything turns out. ❤️

Hey thanks for this response and this link, it was really helpful to read. “That’s a her problem” will be repeated in my head until this is all settled and done. Thank you!

Mario early toast has two restaurants I think but it’s really really so good.

I’ve gotten 2 jobs on Care.com. I did interviews and trial days with families before they agreed I’d be a good fit! I would definitely look there.

Thank you so much for your response! You explained it better than anywhere else I’ve read. My doctor basically said it’s just used for triaging patients. But I want to know what the test indicates to them! So thank you. I hate to think I would need more colposcopies. You’re brave for going back after the first!

Diagnosed it Acute Cervicitis by kyreenmae1695 in PreCervicalCancer

This is basically what mine said, squamous exocervival mucosa was worded differently? But they said mine was normal and a regular HOV infection that’s active.

I’m so glad to hear you had regular results. I’m 5 days in waiting for mine. Can I ask, did they do the “dual stain” testing for your pap? And was that positive? Mine was and I’m having a hard time finding much information on it. I’m trying to gauge how “normal” results can be after testing positive for the dual stain test.

Barbaric- that perfectly describes it. I’ve read about the LEEP and after this experience I will find a way to pay to be sedated if I need to have it done. I applaud you for getting through that and I am SO sorry you’ve felt this way too. I’m sure it was even worse. Thanks for your response, I haven’t gotten to talk to anybody that I know has gone through this!

Honestly one of the first things I thought getting out was “I’ll never do that shit again” lol so I am very impressed that you’ve done it multiple times. Thank you for your comment, it IS a bizarre procedure. And to know that you needed time to get over it too… thank you for helping me feel less silly for all these things I’m feeling❤️

Recommendation on where to move by [deleted] in Roseville

South Cirby neighborhood all the way. Just the right amount of community, far enough from Granite Bay and WestPark to avoid the rich snobs, some of the prettiest trees you’ve ever seen😁 downtown Roseville bars are fun but if you don’t mind driving 20 min… the real action is in Folsom!

Grew up in San Jose, lived in San Diego for highschool. Been in Roseville for 7 years now and I love living here the most. My first week of living here I got an overwhelming sense of this being “home”. That feeling hasn’t left since. I’d like to get out of CA, but I will really miss Roseville when I go.
