Hi my name is Jenna and I am 22 and I was told back in October 2006, when I first found I was pregnant that I had abnormal cells but had to wait til after my pregnancy to have a biopsy. I had my baby in July 2007 and got a biopsy in sept. I just went in last week and found out that I have CIN III......My pap smear I had done back in June of 2006 came back clear. The doctors said that it is spreading quickly....I am worried but I dont understand whether or not it is cancer or is it just pre-cancer. My mom called another doctor who handled my grandmothers hyster. and he is telling me I should be seeing an oncologist... can someone please help me???? im so confused....Thank you!!

Hi Jenna, first I am new here,I was dx with endro ca in 2005 and am currently NED. I am also a retired Hospice nurse, but I want to make clear I am not giving medical advice but just advice from past experiences. I would really listen to your mom. You do need a onocol/gyn for your doctor. It is very important so you can get the proper care. Your doctor you have now is probably good but he isnt trained in the field you need. An Onocol/gyn has has exstenstive training, experience with the gyno cancers. Keep us up to date on it.
I will keep you in my prayers, Lisa T
