I was wondering if anyone had any information on Celiac Disease and having abnormal pap smears? Or if there was any information on pap smears and celiacs in general?

I didnt find anything about a direct link, however I did find that a deficiency in Vitamin B-12 can be the cause of abnormal paps and since those with celiac usually have a absorption problem with certain vitamins, like B-12- that could be the link.
I don't know if the two are related but I can tell you I rarely have a normal pap.  It's always abnormal and I have to go back in 6 months.  That one usually comes out fine.  My dr is never concerned.  They have never found a problem that has to be dealt with.  I just never have a normal first test.
