This morning one of the ladies from my doctor's office called me and told me that the results from my papsmear were abnormal and that I was being refured to an OBGYN. Of course my reaction was to start crying. I assume that if it was simply an infection my doctor could treat it. So why am I being sent to an OBGYN, this scared the crap out of me. I have an appointment with my doctor on Monday to go over some other things, but I'm sure this will also be discussed. Until then I have a feeling that I am going to be worried about this whole thing.

Anyways, I'm just wonder what you girls did or went through if you got abnormal papsmear resaults. Was it really that bad?

Ask everything and anything that pops in your head! I spent three days doing research when I found out I had cancer so I knew what to expect. I even kept a running dialoge with the doctor as HE did the procedure. I even went as far as to tell him I was uncomfortable with a male doctor and he understood. I told him I wanted to know when and how he was doing everything since I couldn't see what was happening.

If you want to know what questions to ask start by writing down what you want to know about. Do a bit of research and refine your lists of thoughts as you find answers and form new questions.
