Hello Everyone,
I am from Canada and about 7 weeks ago I had unprotected oral and vaginal intercourse with a woman that I had known from years ago and now I am freaking out. She told me that she had blood testes done last year and that everything with her is fine but she did not tell me exactly which blood tests she had done. At 2 weeks and 2 days after the exposure I noticed a round red painless and non-itchy spot on the coronal ridge of my penis and got extremely nervous. Close to 3 weeks post exposure it looked like some dry skin like a scab formed on it and I peeled it off. It was and is still a red round spot. It is still there and is not indurated or open looking. No pus or anything oozing out of it either. I still have it and it has not changed much at all. 2 weeks after the spot appeared I went to my GP to have it checked. He told me that to him it did not look like an STI to him and that it just looks like some red irritated skin. When I asked specifically about syphilis he said ''Syphilis does not look like that''. Then I contacted the local sexual health clinic here and was seen by a Nurse Practioner at 4 weeks and 6 days post exposure. I showed her the red spot and she was not exactly sure what it is. She said that it does not look like a typical syphilis lesion and when I asked her specifically about if it looked like syphilis she said ''I don't think so but we can test for it.'' I had my first VDRL done at 4 weeks and 6 days and the results were negative. At 6 weeks and two days post exposure I noticed a red spot on my inner right thigh that looks like a hickey but it is definitely not a hickey. It does not hurt much and is not itchy. I tested again at 6 weeks and 4 days and the results are negative. The red spot on my thigh looks like it is fading and the outer part of it looks brownish yellow. I plan to test again at 90 days.
My question is;
Are my negative Syphilis VDRL tests at 4 weeks and 6 days and 6 weeks and 4 days good reliable evidence that the symptoms that I have mentioned are likely not from syphilis?
