I'm afraid I might have it as well. I'm going on Saturday to get blood tests done and I am extremely terrified and nervous. It's really stressing me out. Any advice on how I can cope with this??? Please help.

    The best thing you can do is not stress. If you do have it you don't want out ob which can be caused by stress. If you do have it as a lot of these ladies have told me it's not the end of the world. It's just a skin virus and you can still live a normal life.

    Good luck with your test of Sat. I'm still waiting on my results but have I learnt not stress and feel so much better for it x

    I'm just waiting for my results, so I'm freaking out about it too. But look at it this way, if we do have it god for bid it'll the same as getting a cold sore on your lip except it'll just pop up down there.

    It's really not that bad and with medicine they won't come out as much. For me it's weird because I have never done anal but they popped up near my butt.. Not in my butthole but on my ass cheeks. I heard you usually get it where the infection came in so I don't understand why they would pop up in such a weird spot for me. I just can't wait for my test results
