Dealing with Fear and Isolation During Biopsy for Abnormal Pap Results

Hi, I'm 26 and I was diagnosed in January after having 4 abnormal pap results. They did the biopsies in January and it was horrible and traumatic due to my PTSD and for everyone around me as my emotions were a mess. Tomorrow is my next biopsy, and I find myself isolating myself from everyone. I found out my Fiancé can't come with me to the procedure and I have to drive myself home. I can manage I think. I just feel so scared. I've had support from friends but I'm not understanding why I feel the need to hide away and not talk to anyone. Any advice welcome
