I didn't mean to get you two guys going at one another... :-)

I will asked my Dr about HPV. But, I am post treatment now, so I am not sure what difference the information will make.

Also - what do you mean my Dr isn't qualified to tell me the source of my cancer?

I was treated at the Cancer Center at Baylor in Dallas. I know Anderson in Houston gets all the press, but I was very impressed by my entire team of Docs at Baylor. I'll name'em if anyone needs a reference there.
