HPV isn't cancer. HPV is a virus.

I made the comment about the 7 days for the cold virus because you are worried about something that you have only had for four days! Not even as long as a cold and your thoughts are going to something deadly... This isn't a reasonable train of thought.

You really need to read more about these things before you post. This forum, and the posters here, are certainly willing to try to help, but you are making statements that are completely unreasonable, they are fears not based in how biology or the symptoms of all this work. Given these fears, perhaps you should find someone to see that can help you work through your fear issues. That might help you a great deal to keep a balanced perspective.

Others that have finally determined that they don't have oral cancers, have moved on. The board after all, is a forum for people with the disease and their caregivers.
