here too. Try not to research too much. It could be something simple like inflammation that can be fixed. I suffered for years with something very similar and they couldn't find anything too. Finally I met a wonderful, compassionate female doc who said no woman should live like I was and she went in to look. She still didn't find much except Endometriosis scarring so we went ahead with the hysterectomy. I was bleeding just about every single day at that point. I had my uterus and cervix taken out but kept my ovaries. It was the best thing for me.

So, take a deep breath and try to stay calm. Call the office on Tuesday when they open and ask them to ask the doctor what she was checking for if it still worries you. More than likely in the case of cervical stuff, they ran a HPV test first along with the pap. Just remember, HPV can stay in the system for a long time before it manifests itself so there really is no telling when you got it if it comes up positive.
