it is possible even after drug that you will be positive for tpha. tpha is a one of the confirmative test for syphilis. as this test is positive you are positive for syphilis. you have to change your drug to benzyl penicillin after consultation with the doctor. this is the very sensitive drug for syphillis. it will cure your infection. thanx health care magic
