Tertiary (Neurosyphilis)
Am I the only person alive who had no idea they had been infected with Syphilis some 20 years prior to diagnosis with tertiary syphilis? I got treated only after I had lost the ability to walk, urinate or even feel my "saddle" area. I feel so alone with no answers available to questions such as "Will I ever get better?" Is there anyone out there who can help me?
Search around for free clinics, follow up with the county facility something.
I had a job and insurance then...I was treated with Rocephin at a county facility and thanks to an amazing social worker, got the treatment on a charity basis...free...afterwards, insurance was used up therefore no follow up...not enough cash...
So how did you get treatment then?
Alas, no insurance, no money, no doctor. Thanks anyway.
This is something you need to talk with your Dr about.
