I've had an abnormal pap a few months ago. I freaked out because there is a history of cervical cancer in my family. My mom, aunt, & grandmother all had it, my mom had it around my age.
I went back in for another pap & things were normal. I also went in a month later for another just to be sure. My gyno told me sometimes mistakes happen, the samples are contaminated, things like that. It could mean something, but it could also mean nothing. So please try not to worry, I've heard several abnormal paps turning out to be nothing.
