Abnormal Pap Smear to CERVICAL CANCER - Cara | The Patient Story 

That’s pretty recent. “Amazing oncology team” is just one of many keys.

I did in 92 and repeated Colposcopy with laser treatment and a cone biopsy. I still didn’t take it serious until 2015 now I have Colon cancer. Looking back I attended all my appointments but I really didn’t ask all the questions or made sure I put my symptoms across. Best wishes with your health Mary ♥

OMG!!! You are a warrior.....so brave!! Hope u r doing well. ❤

What are the further tests please rather than pap smear and biopsy.

The wonders of european "socialized heathcare", than many want to bing to the US...

I live in the uk and worked in hospital here and yes unless you choose to pay and go private everything is mountains away and sometimes people re so busy that they don't call you back from abnormal blood tests (happened to me multiple times) missed my epilepsy for more than 10 years and kept saying it's all in my head and pushed me to see psychiatrists as well for my anemia tired = depressed always apparently. Not. I understand the pressure the NHS is under i worked inside before during snd after the psndemic but doesn't excuse for the mistreatment and neglect and staff being unprofessional aggressive dismissive and making fun of you or abusive, received for all the years and even to this day. And I'm not the only one I'm sure. It happens everywhere even where I'm originally from. I could speak to you all day of what happened to me but I'll save it. It's one of my demons I'll unfortunately deal with for the rest of my life but it shouldn't be this way. Also i know juet because you pay doesn't always equal better necessarily. All the best Much love,

I had it when I was 19 years old. Years later I was talking to a coworker (a nurse of many years) and she was telling me about an abstinence class she was teaching to young girls. During this conversation, she said that she's teaching the girls that all cervical dysplasia/cancer is caused by STD's. I was mortified. I had only been with 1 person prior to this. I immediately researched it and I'm glad I did. She was incorrect. Some cervical dysplasia/cancer is caused by untreated STD's but not all cases. I agree that the stigma needs broken!!

You might have slept with only 1 person, but that person might have slept with numerous partners which also puts you at a high risk. Sorry, but the nurse is right: Cervical cancer is caused by STD’s such as HPV and Herpes.

You would be the first person ever to get your results that quickly! 🤔

@@marysiadzierzek6482 Not true. I get mine back within 2 to 5 days. 16 weeks is insane.

@@marysiadzierzek6482 that’s not true. Mine take 3-5 business days and I got every six months

I know it's crazy. 5-6 days here too

It's called "socialized heathcare". The type many say "it's free", but in reality it's very expensive, only paid via taxes, an incredibly inefficient, to the point were it's criminal.

I have IBS and get terrible lower back pain! I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and now have completed all my treatments. Surgery, chemo, radiation and herceptin. I totally understand that icky feeling chemo gives you and not to mention the on going side effects that can last for months or even years. Prayers for a clear scan for you my dear!!!

These drs do not care though. They just want less work on their desk. They are so dismissive.

Having sex with numerous people doesn't mean you're a bad person

What?

@@bredakavanagh6041probably making a snide comment about HPV.

This lets me know to get my breast checked. I was in the early stages of cervical cancer

I've not had any smears in about 6 years now. I refuse to get them done

​@@karenmclaughlan9128 👍 me from the birth of my children, 20 yrs ago. Everything is great, never needed any type of doctor.

@ElizaPurest I had the same and it wasn’t so bad. They actually sent me home the same day because there wasn’t room at the hospital (big increase in Covid cases at that particular time). I was really nervous about that but honestly surprised how fast I was feeling back to normal. Best wishes to you!

I'm praying for you for your hysterectomy tomorrow. I had mine in 2009.🙏

@@colleenpeck6347 Thank you babes, I'm finally home after a few unexpected complications but now on the road to recovery xXx

@ElizaPurest I just found out that I have thyroid cancer. I was an operating room nurse for 40 years. Flouroscopy is the strongest radiation, and it would be on and off for 2 hours at a time to diagnose pancreatic cancer. It required taking pathology to bites up the pancreatic duct. Just previous to that, the radiologist discovered a lump in my left breast by my armpit. I have had 4 benign removed in the past. My mother died of breast cancer after a 20-year battle. The radiologist did an ultrasound and a repeat mammogram. He decided that it was encapsulated and will redo my work up in 4 months. I had COVID19 really bad 3 times despite getting the booster jab 4 times. Last being last May. It gave me autoimmune thyroiditis in which the free radicals diseased my thyroid despite being on thyroxine. My hysterectomy for ovarian cancer was a breeze on Thanksgiving vacation 2009. I had 2 begin lumps in my right breast that a breast surgeon removed while I was under. He advised me to start taking 3,000 iu of vitamin E daily, and it has kept the lumps away until now. If you have any friends with fibrocyctic disease, please share this simple and effective supplement use. I had 2 removed in my left breast in 2007. Every time that the surgeon removes one, it causes scar tissue, which can cause new ones to develop. I'm retired at 60 now and just pray every day to be well enough to enjoy it. I really did pray for you. No matter how hard we try , it's difficult to fight our genetics. I was offered a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction in 2009 . Because it is so heavily prevalent in my mother's family. But, I didn't feel like going through all that pain of stretching the skin back out . I have had no scares after my complete hysterectomy. I did have hormone induced menopause which caused me to be soaked at work running around at hot flashes and insomnia at night. My husband is over joyed that all that stopped after post surgery estrogen therapy. It was a small price to pay for not requiring chemotherapy post-op. There are youtube videos of patients after difficult cancer surgeries. I am going next Tuesday for a laryngoscopy to see the condition of my vocal cords because I am very hoarse and have severe neck swelling. Hoorbach brand evening primrose comes in 2,000 mg and works wonders with getting rid of hot flashes and night sweats. That's what I was told to use my my doctor to wean off the estrogen it's on Amazon for only $18. Now I alter them with Evening Primrose candies with Black Horash with 13,000 mg of Primrose and 40 mg of Black Horash to get rid of any nigh flashes soaking our bed. You can read on Google the medical indicators for using these. I also used a very expensive $100 bottle of women's menopausal pills that didn't even work for me. God bless, ask questions and get help. There is no reason to suffer from surgical menopause in 2024. 🙏🌷💗

Don’t tell people that,the advances in cancer treatment especially immune therapy with little side effects save people,like me with stage 4 cancer

@anitagurns9480 Why because its the truth??

@anitagurns9480 And please don't tell me what I can and can't say! I wasn't being rude to anyone or aggressive. My own opinion!

If you are lucky enough to be offered immunotherapy go for it. It is a miracle the way it makes the cancer disappear if they have good blood flow. If not they have to cut out. Going through it now.

@@anitagurns9480it’s the TRUTH!

Get a scan at least a ct

Deep breath..you are getting treated..if you are getting a complicated case find out the best Cancer hospital near you and get a second opinion. I wasted 3 years in my treatment dealing with a local oncologist and was given 2 months to live last September..but still here going to the new hospital getting state of the art treatment for vulvar cancer that has spread to some lymph nodes and my groin. Very hopeful that i get through this. One day at a time, eat well exercise and pray😊

In Europe you have a public health system and you can also pay for your own private health system like in the United States if you have the economic option and want to do tests faster and not be left bankrupt.😂

@@fanatla3195I’m in France it takes a week

@@laurenceapitz1678 I'm in Spain 🥰... Same as France, but it is true that during 2020-21-22 waiting times for tests and results increased due to the COVID emergency, just like around the world.

​@@fanatla3195 Bankruptcy and alive or free cheap and dead? Decisions decisions

Mine takes 10 days in England

That’s wonderful! I hope that boys, too, are so vaccinated, since men (and women) can get oral cancers from the dangerous strains of HPV. Unfortunately, here in the States the right-wingers and anti-science people would scream if our government instituted that (not to mention that it’d cost the government a lot). I admire Australia and other countries that have excellent government-paid healthcare (and how your country dealt with guns).

In the UK girls are given this vaccine at age 12/13 i think

My partner , age 64 was diagnosed with HPV p16 Oral pharyngeal throat cancer here in the States . He has since completed chemo/radiation and is 5 years out . IF the HPV vaccine was available back then , he would of been SAFE. My daughters received the vaccine many years ago when it first came out . We need MORE awareness on the importance of vaccinating our pre-teen children ASAP.

​@mindydavis9132 I got all three of my daughters the shot and my mom was pissed! But I had abnormal paps as a teen so I wanted to protect my girls.

The HPV vaccine doesn’t guarantee you you won’t get HPV complications.

Hi! From experience I can suggest you a colposcopy. Don’t wait 3 months. I had the same results ASCUS,doctor said it’s nothing to worry about but in 2 months I discovered I had CIN3(high grade displasia) and needed a cone biopsy.

Get a second opinion right now!!!

Yep. I was awake for mine too!

Me too..very painfull.

Exactly, there was a case they posted a few weeks ago and the lady was already deceased and 0 mention of this in the video

You did, shes having a scan end of April it's only the 7th so how can she end it when she's not had it done

​@@Araksi_NThis channel is for education and advocacy--and to put a human face on the experience of cancer. Your question assumes that The Patient Story keeps tabs on this and that patients' families feel compelled to share such private information.

@@5Gburn by the time the case was posted on this channel she has been gone for months so they knew this therefore “keeping tabs” wasn’t even necessary .I know they don’t want to discourage people, but that was an important part to mention . Luckily, the comment section was full of people pointing this out because not everyone wants to live in denial or with false hopes

@@Araksi_NAgree. I’ve seen two cases here where commenters told viewers that the interviewee had died (one was the one you cited; I don’t remember who was the other).

My GYN told me HPV is the only cause of cervical cancer. HIV and tobacco smoking can also be factors in its development.

@@5Gburn certainly not I know of ladies who have had cervicle cancer and not had hpv, but it can be the cause

@@emmacardall8152It cause 97% percent of cervical cancers. It also causes a high percentage of penile, throat, and tongue cancers.

She should get the vaccine. Can help clear the virus.

@@florb3698 she had the vaccines 2008 age 14 hopefully the hpv my daughter has isn't the one that can cause cancer as the hpv vaccine just targets that type of hpv, and hopefully she's covered. She's still monitored every Yr just for her own peice of mind.

Servical service for us all women 💙

If you believe you must look ugly in someway when you're sick, you do not know what health is.

BS…are you blaming cancers on vaccines?

Wow makes sense. And yes cancer is exploding! My 26 year old nephew just passed away from testicular cancer 😢. He was a healthy young man, but the cancer took him in less than a year.

@@joannek8319the explosion of cancers is because of the Covid vaccines. Japan just published a study about cancer deaths and the huge increase of cancer in “modernized” countries. The numbers are staggering and will only get higher because cancer deaths are typically delayed since people often take years to die. Countries with low Covid vaccine rates are not seeing this increase. I’m writing this as we wait for biopsy results for my sister-in-law, age 39, who has suspicious lumps in her breast. Her doctor said it looks very concerning and almost certainly cancer. Look up Dr. John Campbell on RU-vid. He is very knowledgeable about the subject.

According to Dr. Paul Marie, cancer rates have risen by 78% since the roll out of the vaccine. It’s truly horrific what Big Pharma has done to the population with it poisonous jabs.

Research The Joe Tippens Cancer Story

Socialized medicine isn't so utopian when put into practice. We have many more specialists and diagnostic/medical labs per capita in the United States than in the UK, same probably goes for Canada. Scotland has 22 labs for a population of 4.91M, and in the US we have 26,519 for a population of 333.3M--in other words, the US has 68x the number of people, and *1,205x* the number of diagnostic labs. Staggering, isn't it?

@@5GburnThe UK has both government-paid and private-paid healthcare, so everyone is covered. Same for France, Germany, Scandinavia - probably almost every rich country. We here deserve what THEY have.

Why would you make a comment about her hair? Thats not very classy at all. Mean girl energy isn't cool in 2024 🤚

@@LikelyLost Thanks for the feedback

Stop it!

Even if you eat zero carbs, your body creates glucose from protein. If you're fasting, it creates it from your muscle. With some cancers (notably lung cancer), going into ketosis causes cachexia, a near-irreversible process of muscle wasting.

Please read about the Krebs cycle within the body. Everything practically breaks down into simple sugars that are then used by the body for fuel. Just because you have to consume glucose before a PET scan, doesn’t mean cancers feed on sugars, and that you need to limit them. Cancer patients need calories because cancer feeds on everything very quickly.
