Hello,
Treatment options in recurrent cervical cancer is very limited.
The management mainly depends on the primary treatment received and the site and extent of recurrence.
In your case as the patient had already received chemoradiation, so in case of recurrence the only viable option remains is of carboplatin or cisplatin based chemotherapy. Despite treatment, the prognosis is guarded.

You should take proper check up again like sonography.
Chemotherapy may have killed cancer cells that time but it does not cure the tendency to grow it again.
There are chances of recurrence.
You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment.

You should consult an oncologist and take proper advise.
Diseases like cancer cannot be advised like this.
My other advise is to take homoeopathic treatment side by side. It is the best way to reduce the complications and get healthy fast.

Yes you can get your pap smear done, Cervical cancer is not hereditary.
It's most common cause is HPV infection.
But cervical cancer screening should be done by all.
