Hi, I have HPV and I found what I thought was a skin tag but now I am afraid it is a wart. I was doing research on the net and came across this website. Thank you all for being so brave to come here and help. So I have an appoinment in 2wks w/the doc's and of course I am having her ck that spot. I have had this since I was 18 now I am 32 I haven't had a breakout before. I have been pretty stressed, smoked, and not taking my vitamins but I am changing all of that now. I got vitamins, trying to quit smoking, and I did buy some trea oil............has this been sucessful to anyone? I am trying to be more positive and bringing back faith, not that I lost it but I needed to express my thankfulness to God for everything he has given me, this place being one. Please if you could keep me in your prayers as you in mine that we will be strong and get thru this. We must keep our faith no matter what religion we are cause we can DO IT! Thanks for being here.

Hi Ang2
I'm here for you :) I have had HPV for about a year now.. I noticed a few warts back in April of 2006..it scared me to death!! I was devastated. I'm dealing with it now. I have my faith in God and I thank him every night. I'm trying to stay healthy and try not to get too stressed. I'm keeping my FAITH.. praise God!

skin tags do resemble HPV warts..the only way to be sure of what they are is to have the doc remove them and dna test them. Most docs will assume they are HPV if already dxed and move on.

Hi Ang, I have hpv but so far have not seen any warts. They found this during my annual pap along with grade one cancer cells. I just want to say that you will find a whole lot of love and support here. I am still learning a lot of things too.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
