Q: My Mother Has Beggining of Cervical Cancer Cin 3

asked by: Becky on August 15th, 2006

Especially eHealthy

She had an abnormal smear a few months ago so they did a coloscopy where they examined her cervix under a microscope and took a small piece of it away to analyse. At the time the doctor said it will be nothing to worry about and just wait for the results.

Well today mum had a letter stating she has cin 3 which is severe abnormal cell changes where the whole cervix is covered and she is being rushed in at 10am on thursday to have a loop excision to remove all the cells.

They will analyse at the time if the cancer has spread and then we will have to see what will happen next.

Please if anyone has expierenced this or knows someone who has reply and let me know what happened.
Thanks.

Firstly, just because she has CIN3, this is (NOT CANCER!!) it is treatable and is only on the surface layer. The loop procedure is the best way to go. I am in her situation and im only 28. I have to have it done in 2 weeks. She will be fine. Smile
