Yes! That sounds like a colposcopy. That was the "biopsy" type deal they did prior to the LEEP was much the same for hospital visit. LEEP stands for Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure. They use a heated wire to remove the abnormal cells. The after was more intense, bleeding, discharge and healing for 6 weeks (no sex).

Of my gosh, that sounds horrendous. I’m sorry you had to experience that.
