Was it protected? If it wasn't, this could be an std. I saw your other post about being in the military, but is there an off-base doctor you can see for testing?
It was unprotected sex. The burning is gone when I drink a lot of water and its been a week almost and there's no visual signs of anything. I have been treated for Chlaymadia before and I know how that burning feels. I am not doing anything else. Just don't want to risk giving anything to my wife and my unborn child. I am going to try to get my wife to send me some Doxycycline from Japan and hopefully it gets over here. Thanks for replying. I am waiting for the filipina to get tested to make sure and still get tested when I get back or while I am here.
It is not up to the other person to get tested, it is up to you. And self medicating is never a good idea.
You should get tested.
Testing times:
Gonorrhea/Chlymida-1 week
Syphilis-6 week
HIV-3 months
Herpes-4 months.
so I guess that mean that I can't have sex with my wife unprotected until months. I guess thats the safest way to go. I will knock each one out as I go then. But what is the earliest I would see signs of HIV or Herpes.
Also, if I have a STD, should the person who I had sex with have it as well. I am still going to get tested but if say for my example if I had a STD and I have sex all the time with my wife, she is gonna have it to. Just like the girl I had sex with, if she dont have STD, how can I have it?
You can only get an STD from someone who has it. Let's say you got gonorrhea from this other woman and had sex with the wife before treatment. Chances are the wife is going to get it. Not guaranteed to happen the first time but after a couple of times she would get it for sure.
Oh *** man, so if the girl I had sex with doesn't have a STD, than i should be in the clear. I know thats retarded but I have to say it. I am going with the girl to the filipino clinic soon to double check to make sure and I am going to get tested as well. Just have to find a clinic here to accept military. I have been drinking alot of water and my penis feels alot better now. Now I am only worried about the HIV and HERPES and how I am gonna explain to my wife I got to wear a condom or not have sex with her for two months. I can't live with that ****. I gotta tell my Pastor because I am going to need God and every other miracle I can find. Whats wrong with taking Doxy just in case and then go get tested.
Well we never receoomed self medication because it can help build up a tolorance and you can have side effects which might cause more worry.
She has to have an STD to give an STD.
I was in a situation like yours and I also turned to God for help and he has done wonders. I think it's best to ask for forgivness, don't ask to be clear of STD first because that is selfish, first you need to ask for forgivness then you can go from there. Many woman are very understanding if it's a one time thing and you are able to show how sorry you are and what you are doing to change. I showed my wife how sorry I was and quit drinking. But that was my relationship, not saying yours will be the same. And not saying you should tell her anything, that is 100% your call.
Thanks man. My wife been praying everyday, I don't have STD. My wife made it pretty damn clear that she will kill me if I had a STD, hell no I am not telling her anything. Somethings are only made for God only because people will not be able to understand clearly your situation. I will continue to pray and will go on a fast tommorrow so I will most likely eat good tonight. I will keep you posted and thanks for easing my mind. Like I said, there is no burning sensation when I pee and I had a STD before and I know what that feel like.
Could I also have a UTI. I don't drink water at all but when I do the burning sensation goes away. Its not painful when I pee but I can feel a sharp pain sometimes but it goes away when I drink water. It's been a week now and I am uncircumsized so I really don't know whats going on. Can having these symtpoms also mean that I don't necessarily have a STD. Also, I want six kids and I already have 1 and one on the way and I don't want to be able not to have kids, so what is timeline if I do have a STD to get treated to where it won't effect my fertility? Someone help me and I am turning to God.
OK. Let me clarify, I don't want to have this STD for a period of time and I wont be able to have kids. Also, Gono and Chlamydia is a bacteria, my body should not let it stay in my system that long anyway right? If I do have a STD, I will get treated but they can go away on their own. I don't know how acurate that is but the common STD are bacterias not viruses.
I have read that gonorrhea and chlymida can clear it's self from the body. But I think the key word is "can" doesn't mean it will without treatment. With treatment it will clear.
I went to the doc last week cuz i had white discharge from my penis and he prescribed doxycline and azithronyan. i think i spelled that right. He said he was going to give me both just in case. I only have enough for one medication. will that be okay or can i take one prescription now and the other later? Help me out.
I took the Azithroymin and my symtpoms left 48 hours. I just started taking the Doxycycline. it was 14 pills and i am taking two a day for a week. Thanks for responding. Now also, in the next two weeks I will take a HIV test. My wife pregnant and I dont want to give her anything but is a month to early? Also, my throat is sore and its been two weeks since the encounter, is that signs of HIV? Please let me know.
Thank you. Well i am still going to take the test at 4 weeks and 6 and 8 weeks. I am scared as hell. Also, I had started taking Doxycycline two days ago and I an now starting to feel like I gotta cold. I have a sore throat and looks like I got a cold. Is that possible that I have HIV. Help me out.

It is best to test at those times post exposure to be the safest.
