How often do you get tested? Could you share any experience of STDs?

Post by Supernut »

Hey Guys, this is Supernut.

I just saw a YouTube video on Valentine’s Day about Canada is witnessing a surge of syphilis since 2022, same year bbfs was openly advertised from the Asian shop. Is that a coincidence? I just got myself checked last week, all came back negative, but I felt paranoid again after watching this video.

I always get myself tested every 3-4 months, never got anything. How often do you guys get tested? Would you mind sharing your STD experience?

I think 3 to 4 months is a good time frame. Stay safe, it is a big risk!

After each bbfs experience, do you wait for the time window for an hiv test? That's what I've been doing anyway. No bbfs for a while, until I get my results. I'm due at the beginning of August for the blood test, as was suggested when going through teletest.ca

Agree, good idea to wait a week or so as I think that's how long symptoms take to show up.
It's good you're getting an HIV test, but you might want to ask your doctor if that's necessary so often, I asked about this at the Hassle Free Clinic a few years ago and their answer was it depends on your lifestyle.

Every time I’ve gotten checked out it was at the Hassle Free Clinic. I like going there as it’s literally hassle free. What I don’t want to be is a regular and abuse their process. Do Walk-in Clinics offer the same service or does it get reported onto my electronic health file? Last thing I need is my GP to get preachy with me, even though I’m not that promiscuous when it comes to BB.

I went through teletest.ca, which has HIV testing included in the $49 option. My doctor is judgmental and I've had issues with them over the years. I went to a clinic a few years back when a condom broke, but I never said it was with an sp. So they said an HIV test wasn't necessary. I realize now that I should have been honest, but I did get tested after that and verified that I was clean.

I definitely don't indulge in bbfs that often, but I have to test bc the post session anxiety is crazy. I don't know how you guys deal with it. For me an HIV test if good for my mental well being.

It's a coincidence. That's probably more due to the mass immigration that's been taking place since covid, masses of people have entered the country from third world countries and the Feds don't test for any diseases.

Anyway I just got back from Thailand and went to Pulse clinic. Negative results, they also gave me a three months supply of Prep and Viagra.

Good for you! How was your trip? I always want to have sex trip to Thailand, I have developed a fever on dark Asians since my obsession with Ryla@asb.
