glad to hear you are well, nonnymouse, but given what i have recently learned from the somewhat similar experience of someone close to me, i find it curious that along the sad and agonizing road you were forced to walk, none of the brightest medical minds in the UK mentioned that -- not unlike a test for HIV -- the test for syphilis can often show a negative result within the first 3 months of infection -- *even* when the test subject already is showing what any experienced medical practitioner should recognize to be a ravi shankar of a clearly syphlitic nature. of course, when i say 'experienced medical practitioner' i must unfortunately exclude everyone working at the clinic in Ermita (diagnosis: "abrasion. apply cream. do not worry."); as well as the doctor in charge of infectious diseases at the clinic in dumaguete (diagnosis: "chlamydia. i have seen this before."). the doctor at Siliman University in Dumaguete could only shake his head at the earlier errant diagnoses, impart the information with which i began this post, write a prescription for penicillin and direct the patient to go downstairs and out the door to the right to the ER to get shots in the ass which -- as mr. nonnymouse correctly indicated -- provided a degree of discomfort that may never be forgotten. by the time the pain in the ass subsided sufficiently to sit down, the infection had been killed and the lesion had begun to fade. at least, that's what my friend told me happened. btw, she also told me syphilis can be contracted by placing your cock in the mouth of an infected person whose sore you would not see unless you had them face toward a sufficient light source and bend back their lips to see their gums. given the near-universal indulgence in bareback blow jobs by those on and off this forum, it's a damn good thing syphilis is so rare.
let's hope it stays that way. but meantime
be careful out there
