Prayer request

I am finally feeling ready enough to divulge what has been going on with me the past month. I had an annual GYN exam mid-November that came back abnormal. I then had a colposcopy (the GYN looks at the cervix more closely) and a biopsy done. I work with my GYN (he's also an OB) and he was straightforward with me and said he didn't like what he saw. I work in this field plus I am a nurse so I know about cervical cancer. The two days waiting for the biopsy to come back were nerve wracking. I am so blessed to have my family and friends who prayed for me; I know it was their prayers for my strength that kept me from turning into a complete basket case. The biopsy results came back better than what my GYN hoped for, but he still decided to refer me to a GYN specialist/oncologist because he wanted me to have the best treatment. So I saw that doctor right before Thanksgiving.

They did another biopsy, and the results were the same. High grade abnormal cells but still precancerous. However, I still have to have a LEEP procedure done and that is coming up this Tuesday. They use an electrical wire to burn the abnormal cells off of the cervix. I then have to have follow up appointments every 4 months for a year. I am confident in this doctor and I believe that he will take care of it, but I'm still scared and nervous about actually having surgery. I have never had any kind of surgery before, never had an IV, and never been put out under twilight or general anesthesia. I just wanted to ask everyone to pray for me to have strength and remain calm and give it to God. I am so grateful to Him for being with me throughout all of this and I know that He will get me through the surgery too. Thank you so much to anyone that prays for me, I really appreciate it.
