STD Question

[francostein]

This year I have been tested 4 times for HIV(out to 3 months PE) 2 times for chlamydia/Ghonorrea( out to 3 months PE) and have tested negative for everything. On top of that I donated blood twice more recently(6/8months) and nothing was rejected. Can I safely say I am clean from these STDS? I had unprotected sex about 10 months ago and went through a vigorous process of testing for my own sake. Can I move on from this? Please give me your opinions.

  If your symptoms have abated, you can be assured you are ok.  BUT, if you still have lingering NGU or body aches, joint pain, etc, you are still infectious. (if its myco related)

No symptons - and I have had multiple urinalysis for chlamydia and ghonorrea plus i took a cycle of an antibiotic just to be sure. (doxy) I dont understand when this testing and worry is supposed to stop. this was 10 months ago and ive done pretty much everything to test for infections. EWFORD- what do you have to say?

[ewford]

BTW, blood is only rejected if you test positive for something the RED CROSS has an actual test for.  They do NOT test for infectious Mycoplasmas.  If you have a reoccurent NGU infection w/ symptoms, you are still sick.

Are you still experiencing symptoms?  If so, NO.  You need further diag for undisclosed infections.  Symptoms that persist are an indicator that something is STILL wrong.  What, if any, symptoms are you still having?

The answer to your second question is: I sure hope you do, and I would If I were you.
