Q: Abnormal Pap smear , normal biopsy

Hi all,

I'm not sure if anyone out there has had a similar situation, but I could use some help right now. Recently I had a pap smear that came back abnormal. I then had a colposcopy. My pap results said I had "Mild dysplasia" so I wasn't too concerned. Then, during the colposcopy, my doctor said that my cells actually looked worse, and that I probably had "moderate to severe dysplasia" and that I would most likely need the leep procedure, but we would confirm this after results of the biopsy. Then, today I get a call from the doctor's office saying that my biopsy came back NORMAL!!!! After a week of tears and being upset, this was a relief. BUT at the same time, I want to know: How does my doctor see severely abnormal cells, yet the biopsy comes back normal?? I just want to make sure that everything really is okay, and that nothing worsens because I got a false "normal" biopsy result. Anyone know about this??

I am not a doctor hun and dont really have a medical answer for you, all i can say is i think you should ask your doctor to double check the results of your biopsy because it does sound strange that you will have abnormal smear then normal biopsy, If he wont do this ask for a second opinion because you really need to be sure on this...jenny
