i need advice with this, i cant find the answers i need

i went to the doctors to day and i had a papsmear, and the doc seems to think i may have hpv 16 or 18 .... either that or the sex i have been having is alittle too vigourous... seeing iv only just became sexually active she thinks mayb my cervix mayb irratated because of too much sex... but i keep thinking about this hpv 16 18 .. i asked her if this was like warts or somethin and she said no i dont have anything like that but i wont know until a week from now if its hpv16/18 or just the sex.... i have looked on the net for info but there seems to be too many contradictions... i am freaking out because i am totally into the guy that i am with and i feel so bad to burden him with this... and i had papsmears before i was with him and they never picked anything up before.... i dont understand what it is exactly... how would have i catched it?.... is it curable or will i have this from now on.?. and the doctor said sumthing about the hpv 16 18 being only passed from males to females not vic.versa. that doesnt make sense.... if i got it off him then who did he get it off?... u dont just have this ,... you need to get it of someone else right??? is this the same as warts ... ? please if anyone could enlihgten me i would appreciate this.. i hate having to wait this long..... im so worried sex doesnt interest me right now no matter how awesome and sexy i think this guy is...

I'm sorry to hear about your dilemma.
There's no cure for HPV at the moment
but there are treatments that aleviate
the symptons of warts(if there are
any). I don't necessarily believe the
bit about it not being passed from
females to males though. Don't know
how you could have caught it...the guy
you're currently with...previous
partner maybe. I forget if 16 or 18
actually cause warts but if they don't
the guy may never even knew they had
it.
