Hi,
One thing that I thought of when I was reading your post is that the HPV that causes warts is not the HPV that causes cancer.
I totally agree that you should find an ENT that has OC experience.
I also wondered...are the lymph nodes that you are feeling squishy or hard? Do they hurt? Are they on both sides? Not a definite tell tale of anything, I'm just curious.
Keep in touch with us. We are here for ya!!
