Anyone Progress LSIL-HSIL? - Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Message Board

I am curious if anyone has had a LSIL pap smear and then an HSIL a year later. I'm really scared about my abnormal pap smear, HSIL, and looking for someone with a personal experience.

I go in for a Colposcopy Friday, April 24.

I haven't ever had a bad pap, so I haven't gone from LSIL to HSIL. I can tell you that some women do. The next step is usually the colposcopy with a biopsy (pinch or punch biopsy of the exocervix) with a possible ECC (endocervical curettage). The colpo gives the doctor a much better idea of what is going on.

Unfortunately, I have had this situation. I just had my colposcopy today. It was a very uncomfortable situation (worse than a pap). My doctor said she was surprised that HSIL even came back because my abnormaltiy was apparantly very little. Anyway, I gritted my teeth through the procedure and I will get my results in a week.
I ended up LITERALLY passing out afterwards when she handed me a paper saying what the hell HSIL actually was. I'm not very good with doctor visits...
very embaressing.
