I would really appreciate hearing from anyone with views on this subject.
For the past 5 years, I have been having abnormal pap smears, it all started showing hpv and low grade abnormalilties, until 18months ago, when the cin2 first showed up. I have been having 6 monthly colposcopy visits, where the doctors normally take another pap smear, and sometimes a little biopsy too. These always show the same progression of the diease. The doctors normally say that my cervix looks very normal and healthy, until lat year when the first cin2 showed up, they could see a nodule on the cervix. At this point, they did a loop excision procedure. The pathology results this time, however, showed inflammation only, so we thought I was fixed!
At the next colp test, 6 months later however, the pap smear again showed the cin2, and it all looked healthy down there.
More cin2, so this time, they elected to do a cone biopsy and curetting as this time at colp, they stained my cervix for the first time and could see changes going up into the neck of the cervix (doctor specifically said it didn't look sinister, just abnormal) the results of the cone biopsy are in, and again it is showing inflammation only.
Where on earth does the cin2 go? The nurse tells me that maybe the pathologists are overcalling my smear samples - that they see something they are calling cin2, but which isn't really. I now have to wait 6 months befoe I even get to talk to the doctor to get his opinions, and in the meantime, i'm left wondering if I have ever really had a problem or not.
Has anyone had similar experiences? And if so, what was the outcome? Does anyone know of any natural remedies or preparations (?Vitamin supplements??) that can be of use in these cases?
Please help if you can, i'm very confused!
