My feelings are the same! The initial diagnosis was so scary, but it's all worked out for me too. My colposcopies were all uneventful and I'm sure I had more...

Hi Bianca, My prayers are with you and I hope it turns out to be an easy to treat cancer. My sister has cervical cancer and since she's been diagnosed...I've...
I have no idea why they didn't do a hysterectomy, it seemd strange to me too. I guess they figured that with all the internal and external radiation and chemo ...
Bianca, I am sorry to hear that your biopsy was such a difficult experience. I had 2 bad experiences myself, one of which included a lot of snipping. Tell me,...

Hi everyone! Well, last night I got the bad news; I have cervical cancer. It's in situ, which is as far as I can tell better than some alternatives. They've...
