Today I have a bunch to do:
1. Monday morning paperwork/emails (takes about 4 hours)
2. 8 mile run
3. Doctor's appointment.
It is item 3 I wish to talk with you all about today.
About 15 months ago I had an abnormal pap. Which normally people think nothing about. However mine was abnormal to the point where I had to go in for further testing. Three weeks post-abnormal pap I had what is called a colposcopy. Basically it is a giant garden tool that is placed in my woman parts and it cuts out pieces of my cervix and uterus for biopsy.
After this particular test last December it also came back abnormal. I have mild displasia. Which means that 1/3 of my cells in my cervix are abnormal. This doesn't mean the big C... but they wanted me to come back every 3 months to check so it doesn't get to that point. Once you get to moderate or severe, it is pre-cancerous. But as I was between jobs the last year, I didn't go back. I just let it sit there and stew. And at the end of October I started having some odd symptoms. Symptoms I've never had before.
My doctor's appointment today scares me. I'm afraid things have progressed. I'll keep you all posted.
My prayers are with you! I'll call you when I get out of class today :-)
