Thank you, what do you think about it going down in terms of the infectious puss cells but the weeing being similar? Also, excuse my ignorance, what's an edt?
oral herpes doesn't cause these symptoms. perhaps see an ENT specialist for the mouth symptoms.
it does seem a long time for the antibiotics to be doing their thing though and symptoms still being around
started them Thursday finished on monday
hi Grace
my dip at the doctors was all normal, and at the std clinic they did all the tests again including a swab inside my mouth which she said was for herpes?
my puss cells came back at between 0-5 for the first time which im told is the acceptable level and if that was my first test they wouldn't even treat me before my results came back
she said my puss cells being now 0-5 (last 2 tests were between 5-10) shows that the antibiotics have probably worked and that they are still working and the symptoms will start to slowly ease off. Im still feeling the testicles tingling and frequent urination at this stage however im not sure now how much im actually convincing myself its there and anxiety causing it as you say
the last set of results were back and negative for clam and ghonarea
they took my blood again yesterday to test for HIV (my risk is very very low apparently, 1 unprotected encounter with a young white English girl) I will get the result this week
I now wait to see the official lab results of all the tests done again yesterday (bloods at 4 weeks, urine samples, mouth swap and urethra swab)
still anxious but feel a bit more positive (terrible use of word there!)
I will keep you posted, thanks again for your help
did they scrape the inside of your mouth to look for fungus?
if your ua was normal, not likely it is std related either. if there's not an increase in glucose in your urine, you know it's not that causing it. more likely anxiety than anything. sometimes you start peeing more frequently and before you know it, it's happening all the time. think of it as a bad habit you have to break :( drink lots of water and force yourself not to pee more often than every 2 hours for starters.
will do, its in an hour
I went to my normal doctor this morning, he cant explain my oral symptoms (white tongue for nearly a month now, blister on lip, ulcer on bottom gum that's nearly gone now after 1 week, peeling skin in mouth)
he did a urine sample and checked it there for normal bacterial infections such a cystitis and bladder infection and it was normal so said its likely sexually transmitted
I did a test at 1 week all negative, symptoms have not gone, been on azthro, metro and am now weeing 15-20 times a day
did a chlamydia test at 2 weeks, negative
all im getting is questions, no answers and its starting to wear me down big time
im worried about hiv, herpes, hep b and stuff like that now
