[|Human|] I had cervical cancer Stage 2B in 2008. I m now considered in remission even though last years PAP my doctor said came back abnormal. He said that as long as my cell count was below 32 I would still be considered in remission. I m confused. Do I have a new type of cancer? Does this mean I m only considered out of remission when the cell count is high enough for them to treat?
[|AI|]  Hi and thank you so much for this query. It is difficult to tell what your doctors are referring to as remission. What treatment options were to offered after the diagnosis of this cancer? Also, what were the immediate controls after the treatment. Are the counts still same or are they increasing? If they are still same and not increasing, then there is no reason to get worried. However, if the counts are increasing, even below the mentioned 32, it is enough reason to get concerned. I hope this helps. I wish you well.
