nsu over and over agin

Hi,can anyone help.I had a bout of nsu or ngu in the states with an ex-girlfriend.When we finished I still felt a bit strange and went back to the clinic and was checked and given the all clear.But because of me still feeling symptoms they gave me doxycycline just in case.A few months later I still felt strange and went back they said I was all clear again.I started to think this is now all in my head but whatever safe sex all the way from know.I met a lovely girl a little while ago and we slept together but did not have sex.But she woke me with a bit of oral sex but I am so worried all the time that I put a stop to it pretty quick.I panicked and went to the clinic the next day and guess what they said I had nsu but no specific cause.I could not believe it I felt like they did not believe me the last two times I went there.I am at my wits end.Have I given my lovely girlfriend nsu in her mouth.I feel terrible.

You made a very interesting  comment in my view and I am a little confused by it.  How common is it for a person to get a ngu from normal mouth bacteria and not a STD?

And even though it is contracted sexually it isn't considered an STD?  Did I understand you correctly.

And once infected with this NGU is it possible then to give it to someone else?  For example a man has oral performed on him and then either has vaginal sex with that same person or another woman shortly thereafter.  

Is it possible that the man, infected with an NGU from something other an STD, could infect this person or another woman with this non STD.

The reason I ask is that say the Cleveland Clinic for example refers to NGU as an STD (ie usually chlamydia).

I welcome your explanation.  You are a wealth of information and I greatly appreciate the time you dedicate to this site.

Thanks,

Ok.Spoke to the girlfriend regarding my recurrent NSU/NGU.As we say in London it went down like a lead balloon.I broke it off before I give her a chance to say much.But the shock was terrible for her.I guess at least I never had vaginal sex with her and could have passed it on there and I would have worn a condom.The new meds have not worked again.Seem to be making it worse rather than better.I have an appointment with a Urologist and maybe he can find the reason but I got my doubts.Personally they call it a minor infection at the clinic but if It had been clam it would be cured by now.As Grace has said before some of us are unluckier than others.Last post from me.Hope you all stay healthy.

Thats true Grace.I guess its a bit hard to tell someone what is going on when you first start out on a relationship with her.The only thing is you look at nsu over here on the internet and its straight away says its a STI without explaining it properly.I wanted to use condoms all the time I just got caught out.Should have explained from the start.

why would your gf not want to see you again?  You don't have a std, you have a bacterial infection, no different from an uti like she can easily get from sex with you.  no big deal to have to use condoms all the time to protect you either. I'm sure you'd do the same for her if her doctor recommended it for recurrent vaginitis in her.
