My cervix is completely closed my dr surgically couldn't open without problems pap smear showed endremetrial cells recommend total hysterectomy?

Inconsistent info: If the cervix is completely closed, as you say, then pap smear should not show endometrial cells. You may wish to see a gynecologist or a different gynecologist.
