Undetectable for four years on tablets. Clinic mentioned injectable treatment every two months. Tempted, but nervous about giving up something that works.
Negative two years running, now positive for a high risk type again. I have had one partner in that time.
Two samples, two different answers, same appointment. Nobody explained which one they are going by.
Positive for both. Given an injection and a course of tablets. Is that two treatments or one treatment split up?
Treated at a sexual health clinic. Nobody said anything about my regular doctor and I do not know whether it lands in my notes automatically.
He says if he had them he would know. I do not want to go through this twice.
Persistent ringing and my hearing seems slightly muffled on one side. Started around the time of diagnosis. Probably anxiety, but the eye thread here made me…
Three days into the course. Persistent metal taste, no appetite, slight headache. Is this normal or am I reacting badly?
Diagnosed during pregnancy. Nobody has said anything about afterwards and I am now inventing worries.
Found at the opening and apparently extending inside. Told this needs a different approach. What does that actually involve?
Positive result and no symptoms ever. I have no idea whether this is weeks old or years old, and the partner notification conversation depends on it.
Everything I read about anal HPV is aimed at men who have sex with men. Does it apply to me at all?
Dental appointment coming up and the form asks about medical conditions and medication. I am torn between honesty and self protection.
Looking back I think I have had symptoms on and off since the spring and ignored them. Now being treated. How worried should I be about…
Seen this suggested in a few places. Sounds like it would hurt.
Went in about a sore, came out having been tested for several things. Is the HIV test routine or is it because of the syphilis specifically?
On medication that suppresses my immune system for an unrelated condition. Does that change my HPV situation?
Told this repeatedly in year one. I would like to hear from people further along than that.
He has been given treatment on the basis of my result alone. That seems unscientific.
Viral load came back as a small number after two years of undetectable. Told it is probably a blip. Probably is doing a lot of work…
Topical treatments have failed twice. Surgery has been raised. I would like to hear from someone who has actually had it.
I tested four days after the thing I was worried about. Everything negative. Part of me knows that is too soon and part of me wants…
Second time this year. Starting to wonder whether something is wrong with me rather than with my luck.
I believe him and he believes me and yet here we are. I cannot make the timeline work and it is eating both of us.
Trying to work out where I actually have to disclose and where I am simply worried. Job applications, travel insurance, mortgages.
