Can a yeast infection cause LSIL result on pap?

I’m having a challenging time finding a definitive answer.

I’m 27- no paps for five years- but LSIL and yeast infection came back from my Pap smear two months back

I was wondering if the yeast infection could cause lSIL or give a false positive on the test?

I do not know if I have HPV- my doctor said she ordered a reflex test and was unsure why it wasn’t done?

My doctor recommended I do a Colp and I will be going in 3 weeks from today.

My last pap 5-6 years ago was normal.

Sorry if my post seems ill informed I’m new to all this

Age gap relationship- I think I got played and I’m still figuring things out

I’m too embarrassed to say how much the age gap was but more than 15 years. I was 20. He was really sweet to me when I was going through a hard time- he knew me since I was younger,so I had a lot of trust for him. As an adult (18-19) I talked to him about my hard times- and he was an empathetic ear but often slipped in that “sex would help you feel more connected and could help you.” These comments happened frequently. I saw him as a mentor figure. During one of the conversations at 18 he grabbed my backside.

When it started at 20- he acted like he wanted to be my friend - would make these plans like dates that never came true- he would invite me over to fuck and dangle the idea of more fun together but that rarely happened.

Phone calls were rare- and if they happened he was always too busy so they’d only be 15ish mins- but I’d always have to hear how he was hanging out with other woman, but never me. If I was having a hard time he’d hang on me, sometimes. It hurt. I do admit I over- shared.

I felt like I was just his audience and I had to revolve around him. Things were always about what he wanted-I allowed this-

I’d say there was FWB components but he really blurred the lines saying that he’s in love with me- making those promises- sometimes he’d text a lot. I felt more than FWB but less than a situationship

Eventually I felt unsafe with him as he’d yell a lot, slam things, bang walls- I told him I felt afraid of him. He knew I had abandonment issues and would threaten to leave/kick me out if I expressed any feelings towards his behaviors, which would often send me into panic attacks (I realized I have a lot of healing to do so will not be entering any more relationships till I do more therapy.)

Idk- I feel ashamed- I should’ve known better, but I got pulled to the fact sometimes he could feel so safe and loving. These times would usually coincide with him being horny. But I was so drawn to that loving part , something I never got in my life and craved it so much.

We ended things- but I do feel used . But I also feel like I’m in love with him. I’m processing it in therapy but it’s hard. I know I have blame here also but I’m just venting. ♥️

This went on for six years. And I’m now realizing I deserve better. I’m an adult and I choose to sleep with him and it was fun, but I wanted someone to care about me and the false promises are what hurt.

Nerve blocks without steroids

Hi everyone ❤️

I’m new to treatment for ON- I had a question

My doctor diagnosed me with ON six months ago and sent me for nerve blocks. These nerve blocks have no steroids- only lidocaine and buvocaine - they work great and almost instantly. But the relief is short lived, about 2 days . They’ve been doing these blocks every 2 weeks

I saw my neurologist today who prescribed gabapentin - I’m happy with that and am willing to try anything

But I curious if nerve blocks so frequently without steroids was common? Not that it really matters but everyone I read mentioned steroids and longer lasting relief plus not having to go in the office as much for the blocks

Been at home for a week or so due to stomach flu

Going out and being out of the house is a huge part of how I deal with my mental health, but due to flu and being unable to go outside, I’ve been in bed dwelling a lot on shit that makes me anxious, which isn’t fun

I’m just feeling really depressed right now.
