Grace,

The healt care professionals I've spoken to say the herpes and syphillis tests I've had are conclusive at 6 weeks (I was tested at 7 weeks).  Also, I had the DNA PCR test for Hiv at 40 days and it was negative and deemed conclusive.  Do you think I'm good to go and able to put this behind me?

Thanks much.

I'm sorry to say it. But they say you won' t know your status until you get tested 3,4 months later.

I'm freaked out b/c of syphilis, Gona., and Clymid.

That is what's got me worried.  I tested at 7 weeks and tested neg for HIV, Herpes I and II, Gon, Clymid., and syphilis.  Am I good to go?

you won't get syphilis from kissing.

the risk of herpes is rather low but statistically 1 out of every 2-3 people you've kissed in a lifetime has had hsv1 orally. do you usually worry about herpes when you kiss someone?
