The STD risk is only for people who are having sex with more than one person, NOT for happily monogamous couples. I am absolutely NOT at risk of contracting STD. My wife has never even thought of cheating on me. That's a fact. |

However you don't "carry it in your blood". You are cured. Unless exposed to it again, you will not ever, EVER get it again. You cannot give it to anyone. It is done. Gone. Cured. It's not just laying dormant. It is cured. |

That's a fact. I'm more in danger of catching your insipid cynicism than STD's by dealing with your persistent negativity. That's an opinion. |

Late-stage Syphilis is treated with a longer penicillin regimen, but is still completely curable, although the damage caused by untreated late-stage disease is irreversible. Fortunately, it's typically caught and cured early in the US. It does not remain in your body for life; a low level of antibodies may be present and detectable for months or (in rare cases) years, after successful treatment for Syphilis. But not forever. I actually have an interesting Syph story; my great-grandfather infected my great-grandmother (who was a prominent socialite) with it sometime during the late 1920s or early 1930s, before antibiotics. They already had three healthy children together, including my grandfather, so he apparently contracted the disease via infidelity, no doubt with prostitutes. My great-grandmother was unaware of her infection until her fourth child was born, a son who was blind and severely retarded as a result of the Syphilis. My great-grandfather moved into a hotel and drank himself to death over the next decade. My great-uncle Ira (the disabled child) was kept at home by my great grandmother and cared for with the help of a series of nurses, until- in his young adulthood- he was discovered by my great grandmother to be involved in some sort of sexual relationship with a live-in nurse she'd hired to care for him. At that point, he was institutionalized, and he lived in institutions until his death the mid-1980s. I never met him; I heard the story plenty when I was growing up- it was a popular family legend- but I was under the impression that all this happened at some point in the distant past, hundreds of years ago. Only as an adult did I learn that Uncle Ira was still alive during my lifetime, and that I could've met him. Poor guy. Anyway, that's my Syphilis story. Isn't it Southern Gothic dreadful? :p |
