My last question is this; do you believe that I should get the Colposcopy or ask this new doctor to give me another pap test before proceeding? I don't want to jump into the colposcopy because I have Fibromyalgia which causes me to pretty much be out of commission for up to several months at a time when my body is under stress related to physical pain (as well as emotional stress, of course).
Something else I had taken into consideration is that it seems to me labs can often give false positives. I've had blood tests and beyond regularly for many years, and half the time I end up with false positives. I'm not sure if this is something that can happen with pap smears as well?
