I doubt she or anyone will be able to answer that question. I have yet to find one that can tell me how I got HPV orally much less why it became cancerous. Oh they all will give their opinion but I don't even pay attention to it now. I'll wait and see IF and that's a BIG IF, they ever conduct a study that sheds some light on the whole HPV conundrum.

That said, I would THINK that since a majority of us are exposed to the HPV virus during our lifetime and only a very small percent have it develop into to cancer and that you seem to be one that it has already happened to, logic would dictate that you might be more susceptible to future HPV problems. That an $1.00 will get you a cup of cheap coffee.
