So 12 years ago I was under colcoscopy for extreme changes for which I had treatment, back & forth over the years all seems to be ok? Recalled back in 3wks as results have come back as borderline changes ☹️

🤔If you haven’t received recall information, and need reassurance, talk to your GP.

If you have changes in your cells

Having changes in your cells doesn’t mean that you have cancer. The changed cells often go back to normal by themselves. But in some women, if not treated, these changes could develop into cancer in the future.

It is very rare for an abnormal result to show that a cancer has already developed, especially if you have been having regular screening.
