Hello, and best wishes to all! I wasn't sure where to post this, so I figured here is as good a place as any. I am sure this has been asked before, but after several online searches, and checking this site, I have been unable to find the answer to a question I am sure somebody here must be able to answer. Forgive me if I overlooked this info somewhere else. Does anybody know if there is currently any diagnostic tests available for HPV in asymptomatic males, or is only detected from the lesion or a "wart". I can't help but be curious if that could have contributed to my cancer and info is so limited on the subject. Other than that, all (OK...most) is well here. I hope everybody else is doing well in their treatments and recoveries. I personally have been a bit frustrated dealing with my docs and their complacencies with this, but have continued to be a "sqeaky wheel". Not sure if anyone else can relate to that. Maybe just my own anxiety coming into play as well?!?! Anyways, thanks again in advance and God bless!!!

Hi Rick and welcome to the house. I don't know anything about HPV but maybe you could contact your Cancer Society and they would mail you some information on it.

Blessings to you,
Barbara~
