Wow, I was just about to post about the exact same thing. Same age, same symptoms, not yellow discharge, but bleeding is clotty and Bright red almost orangey, I finished my period 2 weeks ago and it started up again 2 days ago, enough to wear a panty liner through out the day. i went to my regular Dr yesterday complaining of cramps in my calves as well, so now i get to go back to the OB/GYN tomorrow and have yet another pap, my 2nd within 3 months. I hope to hear some of your answers, they will help me greatly as well... Let me know what happens at your follow up, it would be nice to comapre Doctors results and reccomendations.

A leiomyoma of the uterus can give all the symptoms you describe. There is no reason to think of cancer.
My sister just had the same thing and it was all the fibroid. She needed to have a D&C and was worried it could be cancer, but it was not. My cousin had the pain down her sciatic nerve from a fibroid also. Relax, the doctor would have told you it was cancer.
I am 8 years older went through similar experience. They did a endrometrial biopsy in office for me with my pap. Make sure you call for results in a couple of weeks if they do not call you. Fibroid are very common and can grow large good thing you are doing what is needed. Try to wait and get your results rather than worry now.
Some of the symptoms of fibroid tumors are:

Chronic pain in the pelvic and/or abdominal regions
Heavy and/or prolonged bleeding
Increased urinary frequency and/or urgency
Constipation
Abdominal distension or swelling
Lower back pain
Pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
Infertility or difficulty becoming pregnant
Problems during pregnancy, including miscarriage
dont get over stressed here.it can be so many things.I know the HPV does make you have the symptoms you are talking about, in some but not all...I was one to get cervical cancer caused by we do believe the HPV and I am 33...just wait it out, and see what the pap results are. again though dont stress yourself out!!
