Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with genital warts last year October/November. I got it removed and I’m fine, but these days I’m quite concerned. Perhaps this is my projection of concern about other things going on in my life, but I’m afraid that the warts are back and I maybe have cervical cancer? Or it develops as cancer?

I’ve been feeling some things but I think it’s because I keep thinking about this.

My parents both died from cancer, nothing in regards to STDs though/genitalia. I’m 24 and I’m alone, I’m scared of going for a pap smear and pelvic exam. I know it’s going to diagnose with things and prevent many, but I am scared of the result.

What if I do have cervical cancer? What if I do have cancer at all? After being depressed for years, I finally find a will to live. If I do have cancer at all... I wont know how to feel. Does anyone share the same experience?
