Thanks everyone for all your comments and support! Much appreciated.

I am getting a bit confused now. They haven't done a test for HPV yet. They said they might do it at the point of surgery.

People say that if HPV is positive then I would need radio and chemo before surgery? Is it correct? How come they haven't done this HPV for me in advance? frown
