Received a note from my GYN's office stating that my test results are within normal range for testing on my pap smear.

Does this mean that I no longer have HPV? Does it mean it will go away and not come back? Does it mean that maybe, in the event that I ever want to have another relationship with someone, that I have to tell them that I once had HPV?

Where do I stand with this?

Thanks for your help.

I would definately call your doctor back to make sure all of your questions are answered. They should have told you more information.

Thanks Rosie
He did call me back the following Monday afternoon. He said that if I have four pap smears which come back within normal range, every six months, then I can go to one pap smear a year.

Nightangel says that you will always carry the virus but now it is in a dormant state. Thank God for that. She said just don't get stressed out which I am surprized that didn't push me to a bad point with this as I have a lot of pressure on me with my property.

Thanks for responding.
