STDs - November 2007

doctor just called me today and told me that my pap smear was abnormal and positive for the hpv virus. i told my boyfriend who just kept saying "if i gave it to you, i'm soooo sorry". has anyone had it and it go away? i was reading online and it said the body usually fights it off on its own, but what should i do?
can it be abnormal with no infection?
i'm really scared and don't know what to do.

If someone has full blown aids, and they have sex with someone and "pass" it to them is it automatically full blown aids as well or does it always start off as HIV?

Also, say if someone was diagnosed at 20 with hiv and they started eating healthy, exercising and taking all their medications, what is the average number of years hiv patients survive?

I'm very worried about this surgery but told that without it, the warts could become cancerous. I am also feeling the shame and embarassment that I'm sure most go through although I am told around 60% of men have this virus but do not know it. My genital warts have been treated with freezing off and Aldara cream unsuccessfully for 3 yrs.. I had no idea of the Anal warts. Thought I had hemmorroids! I'm scared, feel alone, ashamed, and wondering if I am making the right decision with general anesthesia surgery scheduled for Tues. the 13th Nov. I also live alone and am fearful of bleeding or the severe pain I might be in... Can anyone with experience with this help me with either feeling better about the surgery or let me know that there is life after this...I'm told the virus will remain in my body for life..This devastates me! I am not promiscuous.. I know exactly who I got them from and have extreme anger towards this person..Help!

I have had no sexual experiences, never used drugs, never had a blood transfusion, and was not born with it. I have been vaccinated for hep b.

I do, however, work in a library where I sometimes process materials that could potentially have dried body fluids on them (like blood and maybe semen?). Do you think this puts me at risk for the diseases I mentioned?

I'd like to hear this from someone who actually has them and is brave enough to admit it.

1. How did you find out you had it
2. What were the signs
3. How often do you have outbreaks
4. How does it effect your "social" life
5. On a scale of 1-10 how hard is it to deal with
6. Are people you tell about it supportive
7. Do you know who gave it to you
8. Are you taking medication - if so which one
9. How can you best describe living with it.
10. What do you think caused it...ie: lifestyle, unprotected sex, etc.

A girl I recently slept with (unprotected) came to me today and told me she has HPV and I was the only one she was with. I am pretty sure this is a female disease, but am I wrong? Am i a carrier for it? Should I get checked out? Thanks

I once remember accidentally piercing the skin in my arm with a knitting needle while trying to stick a button to a shirt and causing a bit of blood to spew out. Also the tip of the needle was burnt. Could I have HIV transmitted to me without knowing it? I mean, who knows where this needle has last been? May sound stupid, but I constantly think about it and worry. Someone please help calm me down.

Okay i've just started taking valtrex everyday along with my birth control pills. I am about 3 days late for my period and am thinking i might be pregnant, we use condoms and i take the pill daily, could i still be pregnant or is it just stress? I know they say some meds can counter act the birth control pills and make them not affective. In June i didn't have a period either and the doc said it was most likely stress. So could Valtrex counter act the birth control or does it not affect it?

I just meet him two months ago; he is new in town and doesn't have family close by. He needed to trust someone to share the news and he chose me and only me. But I want to be more than the friend who sits and listens, what can I do?
