"You get the regular STI ones, no dramas - but there's a different one that you get to check if you've got cancerous cells," she explained of her pap smear results.

"And that's the one that people assume is in the STI one, but it's not. So it's a completely different one. That's the one that I went in to get done."

Sam said her reason for speaking out was to encourage female listeners to get regular pap smears.

"I wanted to have this opportunity to say to the ladies, and even the guys out there to get their girlfriends on board or their sisters: go to the doctors and get a pap smear.

"It is so uncomfortable and it's the worst, and I know so many of my friends that put them off. It's a really common thing and it's so easily treated.

She added: "If you don't catch it then obviously it advances into more scarier things. But if you get it at this stage, easy-peasy, no dramas, (it's) a nice, simple procedure.

"So, ladies, please call your GP, get it out of the way and just know that S Fro's on your side."

Wise words Sam - ladies, please take note!

And in the meantime, wishing you a speedy recovery, Frosty!
