hi, i just had my medical exam for my application abroad then the result is that im positive in TPHA or its that my TPHA is near to the boundary of its normal value the doctor in the clinic told me that and he advised me to drink lots of fluids esp. water and take another TPHA examination after a week? is his advised good? and i was wondering what makes this test positive aside from having syphilis because i dont remember having an intimate relationship. can some doctor help me about my queries?

is it possible that a person can acquire such tpha positive without a sexual intercourse experience? what is the normal range for titer for tpha in adults? is it possible that beyond normal range tpha titer will be diagnosed to have syphilis?thank you very much.

Hello,

I have always been concerned about STDs. Every once in a while my concern comes back even though I have been married and in a monogamous relationship for many years. I have a fear of syphillis. I have never had symptoms but I am worried about it from many years ago in high school, about 18 years now. I was tested with the RPR in my first pregnancy and that was 9 years ago and then 2 years ago with my second pregnancy and both were nonreactive. Could I still have this? I am obsessing that I will get nuerosyphillis. i am worried about accuracy or would that have been picked up in one of those tests? Do you know the accuracy percentages?

I am having syphilis and already treated by a dermatologist 2 months ago and it is still positive I was given antibiotics Vibramycin and Pantozol 20 for 15 days and advised to retest but it was positive and then suggested by the same doctor to continue medicine for 15 days more and gone through an other test which was again positive yet doctor said no more medicine it should come down to negative over the time but how long she never explained
I personally visited several sites they discussed on syphilis and shows horrified results coz it is something always remain in the blood even after getting tested as negative so not syphilis but something else like other infection
I was told earlier that penciline injection is good but I live in Abu Dhabi and its not allowed very openly
at the same time its available but only on strong recommendation having told that it may have huge side effects such as causing death
yet I know its available but im hesitant weather I should go for that or not
going through 2 different doctor ( one is lady doctor being dermatologist one is a male doctor who is actually known for treating HIV and Syphilis patients) lady doctor says with injection it may come down little early but the other one said it doesn't effect much but having bad effects so im confused about what to do next
im already terminated from my job after going through the screening test it was not required for visa but for my company pre-employment criteria and was told something totally dangerous that syphilis might carry HIV virus which shows only after 5 to 6 months
when I was diagnosed syphilis 2.5 months ago I had gone through HIV test which was negative
please tell me after going through my history
im going to be 35 years old man in few months.
thanks

I got a syphilis blood test for school matters about 2 weeks ago, I received my results today and they were quite alarming. I am 19 years old and have been sexually active with my husband for 9 months. He has had STD testing done for the military and he has come back clean, and he has only been sexually active with me. My results were partially reactive(it showed two parts on the written results: REACTIVE 1:2, and NON REACTIVE). The nurse said any viruses or vaccinations could affect the results (the only thing I had before getting the syphilis blood test was a TB test a couple of weeks before), and she will test me again in one month. I am scared. I dont have any syphilis symptoms and I have never had them, no chancres, rashes, etc, etc. What could the results mean? A false positive? please give me some insight on this issue. Thank you.
