I'm an odd one - I liked seeing it on the TV!! I'm on 6 monthly colposcopies as well - mine were high grade changes though, they know that. I found it no more uncomfortable than a smear, except the third sample they took made my eyes water slightly (I didn't watch them take the samples!!!). They may not necessarily HAVE to take samples though, so don't panic about that!!

I'm waiting on my 6 month smear result now, and my 6 monthly colposcopy appt - they took a lot of cells out in July.]]> Sun, 23 Dec 2007 07:33:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=266355&title=smear-colo-yhingy#266355 <![CDATA[smear colo...yhingy : I don&#039;t know much about them,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=266253&title=smear-colo-yhingy#266253 Author: meow

I don't know much about them, but I hope the results are normal and it's just a precaution that they need to take more samples.]]> Sat, 22 Dec 2007 19:46:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=266253&title=smear-colo-yhingy#266253 <![CDATA[smear colo...yhingy : Kathy is weird - she didn&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=266252&title=smear-colo-yhingy#266252 Author: kebakat

I was once every six months for them as well, but after having Andrew it seems to have settled down, down there.

Liz when you get your appointment let me know who is taking it and i'll let you know if they are nice or not. I have had dealings with all the OB/GYN's at Palmy hospital.

Colposcopies every 6mths Stacey, that defintely sounds very extreme, I would be telling my GP nomore then once a  yr or even every 18mths. This will definitely be suffient and just have a  smear evey 6mths. Ekk your poor cervix lmao

Best of luck Lizzle , I havent had one but been to a few with patients. they say its more of a discomfort than pain.

Gosh what next for you girl, heres to not having anything cut out in 2008.....apart from whats already booked

we have a family history of cervical cancer so im just waiting for my smear to come back abnormal. Just had one done a couple of weeks ago and the doctor thought i would need a coloscopy cos of what she saw and some odd bleeding but the results came back fine thank god. I told my friend to go and get one done cos she hadnt for to long and her results came back abnormal and she is booked in for a coloscopy in january. I think its fairly common to have to have it done and from what ive heard yeah its not pleasant but not unbearable either.

my first ever smear was done at the woman's clinic in Waldegrave st where I was told my cervix was "beautiful" and shown it in a mirror - so the screen thing would be no problem - although weird.

About 10 years ago went up with my gf when she had hers done, but can't remember much - apart from her saying that I was to stay away from the "busineess end" - not that I was that interested in checking it out.

Geeez - with the mole removal and this, the hospitals will be sick of the sight of me.]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2007 22:03:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=265947&title=smear-colo-yhingy#265947 <![CDATA[smear colo...yhingy : I have to have them all the time....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13125&PID=265944&title=smear-colo-yhingy#265944 Author: kebakat

I have to have them all the time. It sucks but not that bad really. I don't much appreciate when they take the sample. But the first one I had done they put a camera up there and I could see my cervix on a tv screen next to me.. and that's just wrong lol.

Colposcopy.

I've had a few done at the hospital. You lay on a bed with you feet up in strips and they put the thingy in like a smear. They spray some stuff on your cervix if you recast they take a small sample. Doesnt hurt just uncomfortable.
