Hi. I had a colposcopy after a positive PAP showed squamous cell lesions. The colposcopy (in December) came back negative, but then my insurance failed to pay for it, so I haven't been able to go back for another check up. I do have the high-risk HPV virus, though I only ever had one outbreak, many years ago, and that was totaly excised.
My question now is that, even though that colpo in December was clean, ever since my husband and I had sex a few weeks ago, I have had low, diffuse pain in my low pelvic region. Almost like a bladder infection, but not. I had a hysterectomy almost 10 years ago for endometriosis so I have no ovaries or tubes and nothing else in there that could be causing pain. I don't think it is a bladder infection. Could vaginal cancer (it would have to be that, since I don't have a cervix) not have shown up on the colpo and now have advanced to the point of causing this diffuse pain? It is almost all the time. I have had some constipation, but also diahrrea. Even deep inside my vagina hurts. It is like a dull ache that is sometimes worse than others. Now I wish I just would have called my doctor, insurance problem or not, but it is the weekend and I know no other doctor could help me with this. It doesn't burn when I urinate, which makes me think it is not a bladder infection (which I used to get frequently). I have had some bladder leakage, though. Please help if anyone can. I didn't think this would cause symptoms if I did have it, especially so soon (although the HPV was contracted probably 12 years ago at least). Thank you. Sorry for the length. Tracy
