So I had my biopsy today. Which consisted of taking 3 different samples. I had previously been under the impression that I didn't have HPV, miscommunication, I suppose, because they told me I have it for sure today. And then they sent me packing, back into the now horridly scary, lonely world. I go back next week to see if the samples were cancerous or not. For the time being, I'm just trying to adjust to accepting I have HPV. I wrote more about it in my own journal, the whole ordeal.. How have you accepted this?..For those afflicted?.. I'm afraid of being alone forever.

I spoke to my doctor about it, and she mentioned the, as she put it, "so small a risk of penile cancer that the medical community isn't even sure it has anything to do with HPV." She made it sound like men get off pretty easy with this strain, and that the correlation may not even be a direct one.
