I think I have an STD thanks to exh

[Starshyne]

Gabbysmom: thank you for telling your story. It does make me feel better to know that even if the worst is true, it isn't as awful as it sounds. I have no plans on ever having children anymore so all of that doesn't concern me. But I just don't want to have cancer and go through chemo and all of that.

I had my GYN appointment today. They said that it is for sure warts, but isn't a big deal (yeah...that is THEM talking!). That I do not have any other STD's (although I didn't want the HIV test). She said that it was pointless right now to give the pap test to me because I have an appointment for one on Dec 8 already and my insurance won't pay for one right now. She also said that it could take up to 5 years before the pap came back not normal because of HPV so testing me today won't really do me much good.

She gave me some cream to put on the warts that is supposed to dry them up. Since I do not have many of them, she thinks this will work the best. But if they are not gone by Dec 8 then she will have to BURN them off! Ouch!

I checked my answering machine this afternoon and my XH had a message on there from his doctor to call them back. (Why he hasn't bothered to change the information with his doctor's is beyond me) I am hoping that he had to call his doctor because HE has warts as well. Only I hope that he has lots of them. My 3 warts will be gone and he has to deal with 100's of them for months.
