make sure you book your appointment dont put it of any longer

Don't worry Foxy, it won't be with one of those "Duck" things.
Something a little less invasive, shall we say!

Right BML will do!

Oh right - I had terrible visions going through my head then

Will book mine too - next week

make sure that you all do make these appointments ive got mine tomorrow

Just wondered what is the average length of time that you should have regular smears - I know our health authority says every 3 years but some say every 5 years.

i have mine every 6mths cos they keep finding things so each time i have to have a biopsy so im hoping tomorrow that when i do get my results that it will be clear

Oh right - sorry to hear that Jen - I will cross my fingers and everything else that tomorrow goes okay for you and the results are clear

aww thank you foxy i hope its clear as well fed up of going back and for the hospital although its a day out

Normal recall is every three yrs -if there are any changes in cells then its six months -this doesn't nessicarily (sp) mean pre-cancerous cells it can be infection that needs to be monitered ,sometimes without treatment
They have recently changed the smear kits to a brush type thing rather than a spatula type thing ..far more comfortable by all accounts ( not had mine yet either )
