I just gotten by bloodtest today, and im free from herpes.

but doctor told me that I might be infected with Chlamydia, as my reading is 1.3 as i exceed the range of 1.1

the doctor told me that chlamydia is easily treated and less serious compare to herpers.

is that true ?
*
Yeah it is easily treated compared to herpes as Chlamydia is a bacteria while Herpes is caused by virus.

Hi gUYS,

I did herpes test and the result came as per below;
HERPES SIMPLEX-1 Ab, IgG, INDEX - >10

HERPES SIMPLEX-2 Ab, IgG, INDEX - 0.00

I never have any herpes symptom, and i did it as pre-marital marriage screening, wt does it means by >10?, do i have HSV 1?
*
HERPES SIMPLEX-1 Ab, IgG, INDEX - >10

- most likely past infection of oral herpes. To confirm whether you're having it now or not, proceed with HSV-1 IgM testing

HERPES SIMPLEX-2 Ab, IgG, INDEX - 0.00

- negative genital herpes infection

How easy can a person got infected by HIV ?

Pretty easy. All you need is some contact through mucous membranes and wounds. Go ahead and give it a try.

Today my gf went to check up due to uncomfortable when she urine. She went with her mom so i am not there and she say the explanation of the doctor she don't understand.
She told me that doctor say she get sex bacteria and can cure, maybe is from sex partner which is me, and can't have sex for a year?! shocking.gif  The doctor gave her a a shot of strong antibiotic at the @ss.(sorry dunno "pi gu" call what) and some medicine for eat.

We did have sex sometime but is with condom on. As i know with condom will also have the change of  getting std.

So i would like to know where can i conduct STD check up around Setapak. I have a good experience at KPJ Tawakkal Specialist Hospital for other reason before, anyone check up at there before? but there quite expensive sweat.gif

by the way i don't feel any problem with myself but is better for me to do a check up. unsure.gif

edit: She called the doctor and ask about the name of it, it is Gonorrhea.
*
you can get check in any diagnostic lab e.g. gribbles, pathlab, BP Lab.

I wonder what do you mean by "sex bacteria" and how can the Dr. know without doing laboratory test. hmm.gif

i wanna ask how long to do this test during visit and how long gonna take the result?

Blood to be taken is very fast e.g. less than 1 min. For the blood to be processed for testing right up to the results will take up 1 week. It kinda depends on what type of test kit or machine they are using. Some uses instant kit-thus the results is fast-but it's only a screening test. If the lab does not have the facilities to perform a confirmatory test, they might have to send it to another lab for testing.

What are the health risks for anilingus ?

Many diseases are spread through contact of oral-fecal. Just ensure that hygiene precaution is taken care of

Ic.
should i repeat the test by next month ? Or i shall wait for 3 months, mean November for accuracy?
*
in any experiment done in the research, we always go for 3x to confirm if there's any discrepancy.

so, if you are bothered by it, you can always go next month (end of september) followed by nov.

btw, what did they measured exactly?that test results of yours?

yes, this is a positive result.
I'm not sure, as i do not developed any symptom before.
& this is my first time doing this test.

Right. What did your doctor say? If you have consulted a doctor regarding this, antiviral medication should be prescribe to you to treat it to avoid frequent recurrence. There's nothing much you can do except for practicing safe sex with your partner. No vaccines are available for human use at the moment.

Hi, that''s the issue, the doctor at the Bx Lab doesn't advise me anything.
He just goes like, owh this is a very common thing, you got nothing to worries about.

There is no medication had been prescribe to me.
Is there any antiviral medication I can buy from pharmacy ?
*
Actually, why do you want to go for another testing? to double confirm your 1st positive results?

It is common and not life threatening. But if one can control it, then why not? but then again, it's up to the individual since medication is an alternative.

You can get antiviral medication from the pharmacy. talk to the pharmacist. They may be able to recommend one.

Ok, I will try to get the antiviral medication first.

I want to take another testing is just like buying a hope that this one is a false positive.
secondly, since HIV doesn't able to test so soon, so i can do it together with the HSV test again.

I am trying to keep myself calm now.
*
since you want to do both together, get yourself tested towards end of nov.

too fast for HIV to show its effects due to the pathogenesis (life cycle of the virus infecting your cells until you start to show signs and symptoms).
