Worried for an STD with current symptoms: EM, White Tongue, Weak Stream
I went to the Dr. several times over the last 5 months and will break my post up into that.
Roughly 5 months ago my condom broke while having sex with a CSW. Four days later I noticed a small bumps on my penis and a slow/burning stream while urinating.
12 days later:
I went to the doctor for a blood and urine analysis. My blood work was negative for HBsAg, HCV, HAV Igm, HIV and VDRL. Abnormalities in my bloodwork were low: PcT (Platelet .177%) as well as lymphocytes (24.6) and low vitamin D3 (6.85). The urine analysis showed higher levels of Acetone (++), Pus Cells (6-8) and low RBC’s (0-1).
-Dr said bumps were nothing and prescribed Cipro for 1 week as well as a multivitamin. Went from (1) meal a day to (3).
25 Days Later:
Went to the Dr. because my stomach began to cramp (for several hours). The CT Scan came back normal and I received another blood and urine analysis bc the burning and slow stream while urinate were persisting. Urine Analysis abnormalities included: low Urobilinogen (.1) and high Ketones (+2). Blood work showed a low Lymphocyte count (13.40), and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (2) as well as an elevated Neutrophil level (80.6) and RDW-SD (47.7).
-Dr said the persistent symptoms could have been from something I ate, but I am fine.
30 Days Later:
Red Rash begins to envelop my hands. My hands are hot and tingly. Some spots grow into blisters (maybe 3-4). Several iris spots appeared on the chest (6). When the blisters form I was worried it was an infection and gave myself (2) doses of penicillin and took oral antibiotics for days 3-5. On the 5th day my tongue turned white and I stopped all medication to go to the DR.
-I went to a dermatologist and again the bumps on my dick were nothing and the rash on my hand should pass in ten days. He said it was erythema multiform.
54 Days Later:
Although the burning, blistering and tingly of my hands have stopped the palms are still red with off color white circles (Not raised bumps just the pigment). The burn while urinating has ceased, but the weak stream has continued. The urine analysis shows elevated Pus Cells (8-10) and R.B.C. (2-4).
-I was proscribed lexofloxin for 4 weeks and told the rash would dissipate over the coming months.
98 Days Later:
My symptoms were weak stream while urinating, palms still red, white tongue. With the above symptoms I wanted to insure it wasn’t an infection. Blood work showed a slightly elevated RDW-SD (46.9) and a low Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (1.) There were no anomalies in my urine and the HIV test came back negative.
-Dr. says I am fine and there is nothing wrong with me….
157 Days Later:
Rash on hands has drastically dissipated. However, white spots in the pigment can still be seen at times and the (6) iris spots on the chest have failed to go away. My urination is weak and the tongue is still white. I went for a semen analysis this time. Only abnormalities were a liquefaction time of 40mins and Pus cells elevated at 4-6. The Dr said I am fine. I went to a dermatologist and the bump on my dick was diagnosed as GW.
160 Days Later:
Went to an ENT for the white tongue. The Dr said the infection on my tongue my have moved up into my sinuses. I was prescribed Daktarin oral gel (3 times a day) and methadin drops (in nose morning and night). I took these for ten days without any progress on the white tongue. I have now added a 150mg tablet of Fluconazole for the past (4) days as well as consistently use Daktarin and the Methadin Drops. However, the white tongue has persisted. I plan on using this method for an additional 17 days.
That is everything I know. I’ve made a mistake, I admit that. I am looking for help/guidance as I just want to know what is going on with my body or any other things I should test for. Thank you for your help and time.

Hi all i can say about this is to test for all stds at the correct window period as symptoms can be misleading and lead to extreme anxiety.
HIV---28 days with the duo test
Gono and chlamydia---10 days
Syphilis---6 weeks
Herpes--3 months
If all the tests come back negative then you dont have any of them and can move on with your life.
