Killer -

You have multiple threads now.  Please keep everything to one thread, and read the posting tips and Multiple thread topics at the very top of the topics listing.

Have you actually been tested?

Adolmd - In the US, we still give shots of penicillin for things - syphilis is one.  We also get people posting from underdeveloped countries, so shots of penicillin isn't unheard of here.  You might want to watch the tone.

doxy will only kill chlamydia

It will NOT kill other STDs like HIV, herpes, HPV, trichomonas, etc.

AND your sex partner(s) that you had in the past 60 days also need to be treated for 7 days BEFORE you have sex. or else you will be infected AGAIN

shot of Penicillin?  are you some 3rd world country? we use ceftriaxone in the USA
penicillin will only cover syphillis

but you want to cover gonorrhea you need ceftriaxone

bottom line: see your doctor. and realize that you canNOT treat all STDs and that MDs do NOT have good tests for all STDs. some STDS we just call em when we see them. so they can say "i don't think you have herpes" but then you could have it. unless they do a blood test

and for men, then don't have a test for HPV...
