Of course, histologic is late, and of course, the surgeon says that the 'thing' (which none has mentioned with a name yet) is likely to be HPV-related. All sounds very reasonable according to your stories. I feel double anger to deal with sth that also affect relations.....
I also found pure madness that the surgeon waited for me to ask them to run an HPV test, as she said it is too 'personal'! And it's not even covered by privacy (in Italy at least). That's an era when the patient must have a degree as he is often asked to step into the process and be part of the medical equipe. Not sure I like this....
Hope you are planning sth fun and sweet for your week-ends and send you all the best from overseas.
