Thanks so much, RL and SS. I put up the link just for informational purposes, and as a distinctly non-scientist. I'm sure if there were ever be discovered to be a direct connection between HPV and...
I haven't, but it doesn't surprise me. On a lark a few months back I bought some online to see if I could help my wife's hip pain. It did not, nor has it done anything for me for headache or...
Alas, it's a bit late for thee and me, Sr. Sailor. But for pre-teens it's a potential lifesaver. Speaking from personal experience, you assuredly do not want a head and neck cancer....
My wife just found this. Interesting stuff. (though I can't pretend to be able to decipher the science-speak) My cancer in 09 was found to have been caused by the HPV 16 virus. The only good thing...

That sounds like pretty good news to me, Leah, and somewhat similar to my situation. I'm also considering a consult at the Scholz practice and will be interested to read of your experience there....
Thank you all. That's valuable info both about our shared condition as well as the proper way to post! (with my memory for all things computer I'll likely have to make myself a handwritten post-it...
Thanks, Halbert and JNF. I just got the news via an email from my doctor this afternoon (guess he works sundays). I fully intend to get to the bottom of it. Can't answer the Medicare question you...
Thought I was enroute to getting this done but my urologist just informed me that Kaiser, where I'm being treated, did not approve sending out the samples. I had thought it was covered under Medicare...
I am a hedgehog....
Thank you, Halbert. In fact some years back I read it. That is, my eyes went across the pages as I spoke the words silently to myself. But that's all I say about my comprehension. I have no aptitude...
So you're saying it moves stealthily, like a certain Austrian physicist's cat...?...
