Cherie--- colposcopy not colonoscopy. Huge difference!


DMP--I had that done recently and it's not bad. Take an Advil or Aleve before you go. That should help. You might have a little bit of cramping, but it shouldn't be horrible. It's over very quickly. They did the colposcopy in , oh, about 15 minutes more or less. They brought me back for cryosurgery. And now i get to go every 4-6 months for a pap smear. Lovely...... as if seeing your OB/GYN doc once yearly isn't enough.

IF you end up getting cryosurgery, take another Advil or Aleve before you go to the doc's. That's not terrible. And again, you might have a little cramping and get a watery discharge for a couple of weeks. Yes, weeks. Blech. Have to wear pads, too. Eeeeww..... (sorry... just something I can't stand).

Love female parts. Sometimes more than others. This is one of the less than other times.
