I'm sorry its taken me so long to respond back. It has been a crazy last few weeks. So i started the medication for trichomoniasis and it makes me feel dizzy at times.Not the best feeling in the world.
Ive gotten to talk to my nurses a bit more. They did state that Trich is transmitted through any type of sexual contact. Also that trich does cause symptoms kind of like a yeast infection.. as in when you get it, your body reacts to it and you will see symptoms. I guess this helps with my questions of it being dormant in your body. Yesterday i got another call from my gynocologists nurse and she said that my pap also came back abnormal and i do have HPV. :( So now another thing to worry about. She explained that just how the flu has different strengths ( hence H1N1) so does HPV. "Luckily" mine is a milder form. I already have my gardasil shot appt for this wednesday set up, and she said that getting the shots would improve the chances of getting rid of the HPV. I still have an appt on the 20th for a possible biopsy though. Which i plan on bringing my boyfriend along.
So of course this brings even more questions of how i got this. I told my boyfriend the news and he plans to discuss this with his dr tomorrow. He does have a suspicious lump towards the tip of his shaft which he told his dr about and had informed me that he had it even before he became sexually active. He remembers picking at it and noticed that it did get bigger over time but it doesn't look anything like the pictures we have seen for typical genital warts or hpv online. We have the same primary care dr and he said that when he showed it to the Dr, that he didnt seem too alarmed about it and made him an appointment with the dermatologist to have them prescribe him a medication to have the wart removed. So we both have questions about this.. is a wart in the genital area mean that its a definite sign of HPV ? We talked about the trich as well and i know that i have not slept with anyone since we have been together and he states the same.
I feel like ive rambled a lot and im in much need of a nap. :(
I will def keep updating!
