I was tested again for Clymadia and Gonnorea on Monday the 9th of June and again got a negative result, My doctor did a urine test and there was no bacteria, can this be false because of the Zithromax?
My doctor tested me by taking a swap of my uretha and since then the last 3-4 days, my uretha has been stinging, is this because of the swap test? Or should I worry about herpes?
The GU clinics here in Denmark say that you cannot be retested for Clymadia until 5 weeks after a dose of Zithromax but I've read other places that 3 weeks if fine like my last test. Can you tell me whats accurate?
I'm going out of my mind with worry, any answers would be very much appreciated
If you did have anything then the zith could have cured it, so it's not false because of it.
It could be due to the swab, you are putting something in a place where it should not go.
I have heard 2-3 weeks.
Clear morning discharge could just be pre-seminal fluid and urge to pee could just be in your mind.
Thanks for the prompt answer, if any of the doctors are reading this can they answer the following question, what are the odds of having 2 false negative results over a 3 week period?
1st test taken and same day taken zithromax 1gram, test result negative, and second test, exactly 3 weeks after and also negative?
After the test I was told that I had an infection in my urethra and the zithromax would cure it, but these symptoms are back again, I read that sometimes a singlr dose of zithromax sometimes isn't enough to cure a uretha infection and a longer course of anti-biotics may be required, it his true?

Once again thankyou

2 false negatives-probably would not happen unless you were on a anti-biotic that messed up the test.
Yes it may take different medication or longer on the same medication. What infection did they say you have?
