    This STD was going around my community last year. A woman KNEW she had it and was still selling herself for money... They should put out a public warning for things like this. I had a break up that year. Had particularly bad acne and my eyes have been so sensitive to sunlight. I convinced myself that I must have this. I was SO RELIEVED when I came back std free 😂 My doctor also wasnt happy about testing me. When my results came back negative he acted as if I was wasting his time. How terrifying.

    As a nurse back in the late 1980’s, I took care of a lady who was so sick with this. She was bed ridden with it and it impacted her spine. She was not able to straighten out her back and just existed in a fetal position. It was awful for her.

    • @monicaclasener
      @monicaclasener 10 месяцев назад +85

      How awful for your patient. I have a somewhat similar story. As a student nurse, I recognized a new patient on our rheumatology ward, who had a very painful wrist, and it was unclear what it was. After a week of testing, it came back positive for syphilis. With the proper treatment, she made a full recovery. It was scary, though, that she belonged to the same circle of people we both had sex with. This was pre HIV (1981), and all women used oral contraceptives, so we stupidly rarely used codoms. Luckily, I tested negative.

    This was the first sti i ever had and it went undiagnosed for about 8 months of secondary synptoms. I was so ill and my immunity so low that i caught Glandular Fever ontop of it. A viral and bacterial infection ruined my body for 8 months. My rash did not go onto my palms and i also had Bells Pausey as a result. I couldnt eat; i lost allot of weight and at the end i had telogen Aphluevium (sp) and all my hair fell out. I cannot believe after all the tests i did for hiv and everything else that not one doctor tested me for this! It was the worst illnes ive ever had. So please be aware of these additional symptoms you may get and if you ever go undiagnosed for more then a month of illness get a full sti screen and save yourself the pain!

    As a nurse, patients presenting with Syphilis are given one injection deep within each buttock. These shots are very painful, so the specific antibiotic also has a pain reliever mixed in the syringe. The needles are long and heavy duty. So protect yourselves, wear protection and don’t engage in risky behavior - STDs are spreading in the older population who think because they are too old to get pregnant, they don’t need condoms. If you say no to protection, you maybe saying hello to Herpes, Chlamydia, Genital Warts, ( a precursor to cancer ) Syphilis or Gonorrhea.

I kept asking myself since may 2023 until the day i got tested why i always feel sleepy even i slept 8 hours a day and had proper meal and nutrition.
    I went to our local healthcare ang got jabbed in the butt with penecillin G.
    The doctor told me that I have a lenient syphilis. Maybe i got the syph way back year 2018 or 2019 and the bacteria just slept. Thankfully the medicine was free.

    One important, sometimes overlooked aspect of syphilis testing is that if you have some sort of autoimmune (Lupus, Hashimotos, etc.) with Anti-phospholipid antibodies, ANA, etc. you can receive false positive test results.
    So, it's important that your doctor knows all of your diagnoses so that they can order the more extensive/correct tests.

Many infected people didn't know they had syphilis. Behavioral change could happen further as they got older and /or when the families placed a love one in an asylum and even there were people contracting it in fecal matter, urine, or even people who were taken advantaged of in these asylums.

These "Super" stds are stds that have started becoming immune to some antibiotics. Syphilis has a blood draw test, and is treated with a shot in the butt. Gonorrhea is also becoming "super". It and chlamydia have a swab test or urine test. Pills for the chlamydia, shot for Gonorrhea. Hope this helps people who are confused or are unsure of the testing process

Even hiv can be caught not sexually but of course it’s rare but can absolutely still happen. Best ppl with hiv stay on their meds so their viral load is untectable so it can infect others.

      And the fact that we KNOW that the rates are going up is actually a good thing. It means more high risk people are being tested more often. That they are being treated quickly and are not spreading things around as much as those who do not get tested.
      We saw this happening with HIV infections. By and large, the higher risk someone is the more likely they are to be responsible and get tested.

    An important and informational video. Spirochetes are very nasty little creatures. I read somewhere a while back that neurosyphilis can develop IMMEDIATELY after infection and does NOT necessarily manifest ONLY after secondary or tertiary stages. Some prominent people have died from neurosyphilis, and apparently it is most unpleasant. Friedrich Nietzsche died from it, as did Winston Churchil''s father, Lord Randolph, who was a leading British politician, and chancellor of the Exchequer. Randolph's erratic and bizarre behaviour in the later stages of neurosyphilis wrecked his political career, and emotionally traumatized the young Winston.

      Most men who get it on their penis have no clue. Same with honestly probably 90% of people that get it vaginal or anally. You have to be very hands on with those areas to feel a wart.. And on top of that, most people never even get warts on the first place.
      Most people clear the infection in a few years.
      A very small percentage people who get HPV can end up with pre-cancerous cells. A very small percentage of those people develop cancer.
      Moral of the story, look for any wierd bumps on any penis you come in contact with. If you have receptive anal or vaginal sex, get a pap smear often (how often depends on your sex life).
      Also important, there currently is no pap smear for oral /throat HPV nor any really good regularly used way to look for it or precancerous cells...
      And oral /throat cancer caused by HPV is fast surpassing the amount of cancer caused from smoking....

    i donated blood for a (relatively) distant family menber,some time after we went there to get the blood test results due to the fact
    the blood i had donated was tested for stuff that can affect the recipient of the transfusion of blood, i opened it up and read it trougtly all were well until i passed my eyes over the syphilis category the type A was marked negative(as one would expect usually if you are familiar with the proper precautions) but when i looked at the second type b what i saw made me stop talking to my mother, on the paper marked as follows: syphilis type b/2d(po)
    my mother looked at me and asked me what was wrong and i stared at her for a bit and she followed my eyes to the paper and she saw it and went silent too i looked her in the eyes and told her that *i needed*
    another blood test sinse i had never had intercourse at that time so that positive appearing out of the blue in a blood test for a blood donation *really disturbed me*
    i did not understand how&why exactly it appeared on that blood test but we did a second test and we were relived that it was a false positive on the first test
    the second test showed that my blood was 100%clean from stds(syphilis) and some reagent for the tests may had some anomaly in its composition and that may have caused a false positive on my first blood test results

STDs spread as ever before. Condom usage did not increase. In fact, exposing kids to sex education actually makes them want to have sex even more! It’s better to use the time actually educating them on core curriculum, and getting their minds off of sex with extra curricular activities.

The study initially involved 600 Black men - 399 with syphilis, 201 who did not have the disease. Participants’ informed consent was not collected. Researchers told the men they were being treated for “bad blood,” a local term used to describe several ailments, including syphilis, anemia, and fatigue. In exchange for taking part in the study, the men received free medical exams, free meals, and burial insurance…😢😢😢6

    Actually in Greek we have the word (crudely translated at best here by me) "syphilize" and "syphilized" meaning i got extremely angry and/or irrational. In the same time when we use that verb we don't mean anything about the disease or any STDs or sexual intercourse. It's 100% used to convey anger. It's used by everyone, even the simple people not knowing the first thing about the disease. It's extremely interesting that tertiary syphilis had such an impact in the past that the verb is still used today to accuse someone of being too angry and/or crazy or to convey that we ourselves are too angry and irrational!

    One thing he didn't mention: Once you have gotten Syphilis once you will always test positive for the default standard test they use to detect it. The default is to look for the presence of ANY antibodies to the bacteria in your blood. You have to get a different test to see if you end up getting it again... And you can.
    Beyond that;
    As someone who is gay and considered VERY high risk of STIs, I gotta say they are much less common then most people think.
    I've been very high risk for 10 years. I've gotten around 10 STIs in that time period.
    Syphilis once.
    Sure, I bet most people think that getting them that many times is a lot. But, it's not if you factor in my sex life.
    But, still, if you are sexually active with multiple partners and don't use condoms, get tested for everything at least every 3 months. If you are very active, monthly. It's for your benefit as well as others.
    Oooh and also, if you are a receptive sexual partner, maker SURE that you test any hole a penis goes in for gonorrhea and chlamydia. They require site specific testing. Anal and throat are swabs. I'm not sure about vaginal. Penises just need urine testing.
    This is because G and C don't spread throughout the body or into the blood quickly for a VERY VERY long time and by the time they do, you're gonna be horribly sick.

Such is the case with me; as further tests show I don't actually have it. I've never even been considered high risk for syphillis (only 2 hetero partners ever, never had a single STD) but due to the inability of Red Cross to discern between true and false positives, I'm one false positive away from being permanently deffered from donating. It breaks my heart because I just wanted to help save lives by donating blood - but I feel so gross and dirty having to face false positive results threatening my ability to donate, despite never even having had syphillis.

Interesting enough, on one occasion, they called me back in after donating blood and they told me that after they've tested my blood, it came positive for syphilis?! My face dropped but at the same time I knew they must be wrong as I didn't start being sexually active until a year later. Like I told they, surely they're mistaken unless I'm stupid and maybe I contracted it by thin air otherwise it's impossible. Upon hearing what I said, they re-done the test and they've apologised and said that the original antigens they saw in my blood were the same that would come up if you had the flu or a cold and it mimics the same antibodies that would appear in a syphilis infection. I was shocked that wow I didn't know that antibodies aren't always spot on. But hey, in the end, I knew I was right and they was wrong.

      Regarding the original comment here in the Netherlands in general the test is covered by the basic mandatory health insurance through the GP ("huisarts" as we known them). There are anonymous options too but obviously not covered by insurance as far as I'm aware. And the public health service (GGD) does it for free for certain populations like people below 25 who don't want to go through the GP (probably to avoid parental issues), sex workers and also men who have sex with other men. No idea how it goes when treatment is needed but I assume it's covered by the same insurance.

    I have never had symptoms but now I'm worried because I'm pregnant. I had some risky behaviors a decade ago, but now not at all. I hope my doc doesn't think I'm crazy if I ask for a test!

      Don't care about what others think, do what you think is best for your baby.

      Your Gynacologist should do a whole STD panel - just in case. In a lot of European countries, they do it routinely

      @@DUES_EX truth, but in all fairness, I blame the lack of Father figures, a little girl should be taught to protect her virginity. Most of these Ho Women never had a dad or worse they had a dad who pushed them into being a feminist ho

      well, in my country every pregnant woman gets tested for this, just in case! And many other things, including hiv and some infectious diseases. You should get a whole panel of tests by default when pregnant.

    Interesting. Did not know it was on the rise. I worked geripsych for a year one of our patients was tested for syphilis. He was not positive but he was dx with 3 different types of dementia. Guess the psych doc thought maybe based on his many symptoms.

    I was wondering if you guys would talk a little about PML I had a problem back in Feb 23 and ended up being in the hospital over a month while there they did a Brian biopsy to see if I had PML and was confirmed to have it. I had a few Doctors would tell me a few different things about my future with. Some said it would ventually to not be able to think right cause lots of Neuro problems and probably die. I also was told take antivirals and it will reverse itself and I'll be fine. I like the ladder than the dying one for sure. If you could talk a little about it would be so awesome. Thank you. Joey..😊

    My mom’s neighbor’s son is disabled and mostly in a wheelchair. He is about 20 now and his mom has to change his diapers. She had syphilis thanks to her husband fooling around. Oh and he had a baby due around the same time as this child. I don’t know if that other child got infected but he definitely got his wife and the baby/now adult has lifelong issues. They are surprisingly still married but she definitely hates him. Syphilis is no joke.
