Brian's advice here is very well taken. I have had a couple of coloposcopies which have come back negative (good news) for HPV but I'm still not convinced the connection isn't there..I would echo his remarks about partners being tested. I am now getting PAPS every 4-6months for just the reasons he outlines and would urge others to do the same.
