"For his own health, sure, it's not a big deal. But what if he and his girlfriend have decided to stop using protection with one another?"

"Cervical cancer is not caused exclusively by the HPV virus, it's only thought to account for around 70% of CC cases."

It sucks. Though my favorite line is: If it isn't a chemical problem, why does my medicine fix it?

There are several good workhorse antidepressants on the Wal-Mart and Target $4 lists like Celexa, Prozac, and Paxil. Not that drug companies are not the spawn of Satan, but that is available today even in our craptastic system.

Though while its uncommon in fact, it is something that MANY people seek out as a cause of their depression. (And idiots like idiotfish suggest to people the same)

The problem is that while your psychologist recommended you try anti-depressants, he is not actually trained to rx them so he sent you to someone who was. They may both have mental health training, but they are by no means similar. The psychologist may have has a class in the basics of pharmacology, but not years of…

Yes we do. But without HPV, you got no cervical cancer. SO if you just screen for HPV, then pap the ones who come positive, you will have the same (or possibly better) sensitivity. The benefit from doing a self administered HPV assay is greater patient acceptance of the test. If you can increase the number of women…

The reason its not done as a screening test in men (other than as an anal pap) is that ITS NOT BENEFICIAL for a man to know whether or not he has penile HPV.

"If you find out you have HPV (which most people have), it might be a good idea to have pap controls more often, but it does not equal cervical cancer."

Because 'Save your Grandma from Breast Cancer' isn't funny. Save second base is. I don't think anyone who has worn a 'save second base' or 'save the tatas' tee shirt was thinking: 'yeah, fuck the women with breast cancer, I just care about the boobies'. The fact that you assume that says a lot more about YOU than it…

This may be utterly inappropriate... but I totally just coughed milk out of my nose.

Personally other than professionally I could give a rat's left nut about anyone's tatas. Asses... that's different, but only if they are tight and attached to a hunky guy.

No, but dealing with illness does not have to be all doom and gloom. See: Save the tatas.

Since it sounds like it was mostly texts, it probably cost them $4.85.

I for one would like to apologize for my sex.

"Still, nowhere in my OP did I single out creames as the only factor in bacterial resistance, that concept came from you."

Actually I don't think calling me an ass for posting this cell phone numbers/names/emails is 'way too harsh'. I can be an asshole at times. Though in this case, I'm not. Like any board (not to mention elected officials) the individual members are responsible for the actions of the entity that they govern. If you don't…

If you would like to express your displeasure, the following are school board members for the Alice Independent School District and their phones (cell when listed on the school website) and email addresses. Obviously if you want to really make a difference, don't be an ass, harass their families or call them at 0300…

Wow. I'm a loser? You must have a pretty high bar for non-loser-dom. I make over a quarter of a million annually. And I still march in protests and volunteer my skills at a hippy low income clinic. I also give a substantial portion of that income to progressive causes.
