I went for my annual check up on Feb 3, 99. and received a phone call from my doctors office saying they found some abnormal cells on the yearly pap smear and we scheduled a colposcopy for next week. I have a copy of my lab's pap results, the diagnosis is EPITHELIAL CELL ABNORMALITY, LOW GRADE SQUAMOUS INTRAEPITHELIAL LEASION, The report was faxed to us, and the PHOTOMICROGRAPH is rather dark and unclear. The specimen 2 Cervical HPV Swab result is HPV-DNA POSITIVE, HIGH RISK TYPES. I have a history of "NORMAL" pap smears, NEVER "abnormal" till this one. My prior test test was Feb 13,98, then Feb 97, Feb 23, 96 and each February since the birth of our son in 1989. I'm 38 my husband is 47, we are both professionals and have been monogomous, and are very safe. THIS HAS US BOTH SCARED BEYOND BELIEF!!! is this an indication of a pre-cancerous situation, would the pap test have picked up malignacy if it were present?? is it ever Fatal, at this point??? We are are both extremely scared of the outcome and have spent many sleepless nights since being infomed of this on March 2, 1999. Please explain what this means in detail and the possible diagnosis and treatment, is it ever fatal at this point, is there reason for alarm?? Thank you for your time
