I had a colposcopy and the doc took a biopsy (was dx with high risk hpv)I got the results in the mail saying my cervix was wnl ( within normal limits. Can I still have lsil or anything if my results say cervix within normal limits? Am I worrying for nothin? My repeat pap is in 6 months which means may.... I did have a pap before the colposcopy that was abnormal which made me get this 2nd colposcopy that I'm writing about but even though the pap was abnormal they said they did not detect the hpv this time.... Just confused and scared.... Like usual!!! Thanks for any advice...

You're letting your anxiety get the best of you. The clue here is that you don't have to go back for six months which is fairly typical when you've had a colposcopy, even if everything is normal (at least that's what my doctor has told me). Try not to read too much into the results and if you aren't sure, by all means call your doctor to have it clarified. Unfortunately test results in writing always look more ominous than they really are. Sounds like you have cleared the HPV and your cervix is back to normal.
