planned parenthood is an awesome place to go. (http://www.plannedparenthood.org) they are all really nice and helpful and it is completely private... it cost $45 to be treated with the acid/chemical procedure... but she told me that the prescription for alladra (however you spell it) would be $50. it may vary in price depending on your area, but probably not by much... the people at planned parenthood are qualified doctors too... they do pap smears and help women along with pregnancies. anyway, hope this helps. get checked out soon! the sooner the better!
oh yeah... you also don't need insurance to go there (which is good... and something i personally wanted to avoid, because when you claim things on your insurance the insurance company sends a letter to your house stating what was claimed.)
also, don't feel bad about getting hpv. it happens to a lot of people believe it or not... many are not brave enough to do anything about it, or they just don't know they have it. at least you have a chance to do something about it. my doctor told me that many people, after treatment come back with negative results for hpv within two or three years. (that doesn't mean that you are completely "cured" but that the disease at least is incredibly supressed and you may not ever get another outbreak again... and have a very very small chance of spreading it to others)
anyway, good luck!
