Health Query

Hello Doctor, Last May from my blood test came to know that I have syphilis. Doctor prescribed me 6 shots of penicillin 1.2 million. I got all the 6 shots but still my vdrl report is positive, though the dilution came down 1: 32 to 1: 16. Doctor prescribed me another 6 shots, but 2 at a time. (Penicillin 1.2 m two shots each buttock for 3 week). I already got 1st two shots. My question is how long it will take to get my vdrl report negative again? As my dilution came down from the 1st report (from 1: 32 to 1: 16), am I curing very slow? Am I getting proper treatment?

You are getting a proper treatment and your body is responding and you are getting relieved of the infection slowly. Continue the doses as prescribed by your doctor along with regular follow up. You will be also be given oral medication to continue for few days if required. Don't worry your doctor is treating you well.

I don't know since when I have this problem, I never noticed but few years back I saw crazy veins in my left foot (internal side) from toe to ankle. And now more I notice more severe they seem to be although there is no bluish skin or itching but sometimes I do feel like numbness or burning sensation in my left foot after prolonged standing. The vein is really getting messier and thick. Some of them I have noticed behind my knees in both legs and some in quads. My major concern in the one in my left foot and the one near my right knee. I have a history of rheumatic fever for which I was prescribed disprin (9-12 tablets/day) and penicillin for few months and later penicillin was continued for 10 years by doctor's advise. My treatment for rheumatic fever got completed by 2013-14. Now i'm 25 and worried about this new condition.

Dear user. Thanks for the question. I can understand. HIV spread through Contact between broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes and HIV-infected blood or blood-contaminated body fluids. Deep, open-mouth kissing if both partners have sores or bleeding gums and blood from the HIV-positive partner gets into the bloodstream of the HIV-negative partner. HIV is not spread through saliva. Take care.

Hello dear Lybrate user,
Warm welcome to Lybrate.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly. Many times the antibodies in blood from previous infection shows up in blood reports for very long periods even for years Which does not mean that you are suffering from syphillis.
So there is no issue of panic at all. What important is your symptoms rather than reports sir Hope this clears your query. Wishing you fine recovery. Welcome for any further assistance at my private URL
