HPV Support Group
Human papillomavirus is a diverse group of DNA-based viruses that infect the skin and mucous membranes of humans. More than 100 different human papillomavirus (HPV) types have been characterized. Some HPV types cause benign skin warts, or papillomas, for which the virus family is named. HPVs associated with the development of such "common warts" are transmitted...
We're always here to listen so don't feel terrible, you're a great guy and you helped me pull through when I thought the world is coming to an end. You shouldn't have had to feel like this.
I'm really sorry that you're feeling so low. Don't let this get you down, but instead just keep pushing through. It's really scary and devastating. I understand that. Just be there and comfort each other through this time.
I think that if your girlfriend needs treatment they will either use Aldara or she could possibly use the ACV treatment. If they get to out of hand she could always have them lasered off but for right now I wouldn't stress to much about it. Wait to see what happens, and if it progresses than both of you should go back to the doctor and seek out the right treatment. Best wishes!
I'm new to this group I have been reading your comments and I say that you guys are awesome!
I was diagnosed with gw in Oct . I'm right now on Aldara. It's been a roller coaster of emotion since I got this but my partner has been so loving and a great support. I have been eating well with more vegetables and juicing like crazy (lol), thinking creatively about the whole thing, keeping active, taking vitamins, being extra clean etc. But another great method I guess is too know that there are good people like you guys and this site to come to.
Before this happened, I was extra careful when it comes to sex. Cleanliness and safety was my creed yet I still got it. So, I guess that's what makes us humans. My doc said that this doesn't define me and I totally agree. Knowing more about it now keeps me on top of the fight against it.
I come to this site for support and reading your input makes me see the light at the end of the tunnel. Life will not be like this forever and perhaps we will see the cure in our lifetime but meanwhile we have each other and the people that understands and love us.
Thank you all!!!!
