Curious how many Ladies ....

Get tested and how often ?

For me I get tested every 6 weeks, for my own security and for my visitors. I have a fantastic son I want to see get married and have childern. I want to be old and wrinkled in a home chasing down the men.

Share with the class how often you get tested, and your reasons why.

I do it 2 times a month in the middle and the end of every month. I feel that anything more than a month is to much of a risk for myself and a client. I am on a first name basis with my doctor and the nurses, and feel like there is a relationship evolving....LOL.

My Reasons: My safety, my clients safety, and I want to be around for many more years for my family.

I considered going to university to be an OBGYN.... After putting a lot of thought into it, I decided against it, based on the fact that the only pussy I was gonna see was damaged pussy, pussy with error messages, pregnant pussy, and dysfunctional pussy. It kinda looses its sense of happiness and excitement. It didn't seem as appealing after I realized that.
For the life of me, I still can't figure out why anybody would willingly take up proctology. Were they the doctors that couldn't handle anymore university and decided to stick to one body part? Eeeek looking up ass's all day.

Blood work every 6 months and check ups every month. I do not get my blood taken as often as check ups because needles scare me. I never do anything at all with out a condom. Maybe in ten years I might want a child. I agree with Annalise Lane I want to be old and wrinkled one day. Your body is your temple. Don't mess up the one you got

Once every 2-3 months

I don't really need to go monthly.



Anyhow, as I have always said, testing only tells you you're sick, it doesn't prevent it.

So, by doing ''SWINE'' activities, you may have caught something the day after you get tested and you wouldn't know until the next time, right?

How many people would you see before that?

Great topic Annalise. ~pats on the back~

Once A Month...

Maybe I am a paranoid freak, as I am safe in all that I do, but I can't help myself...

 

[Victoria Rose]

Get tested and how often ?

Once a month. Maybe that's a lot considering I do nothing without protection, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

I want to be old and wrinkled in a home chasing down the men.

(Giggle) What makes you think you'll have to chase them Annalise? I hear the old ones don't move that fast!

LMFAO ... ain't that the truth ... totally forgot I could just walk down a hall way and grab me some man ass.


Shedevil I understand that we are not safe or NON contagious one visit after we get tested. But for me, it's a matter of stress and comfort. As long as I know I am doing my part to keep everyone healthy, or as close as possible... I sleep better at night.

It is nice to see some responses and comments from the ladies on the topic. This was spawned after I had a phone with one of the gents that seems to think I am cool. So I thought, why not put it to the board. In a visit with said gentleman, I did something that concerned him, which I completely understand, and apologized for. So he asked how often I get tested, low and behold I was due to pick up my test results yesterday, which I did pick up today.

And it seems that the controversy around some of the MP's in edmonton have him wondering how many other ladies have given bbfs. He is not naive in thinking it's just the one lady but it could be alot of us.

WTG ladies for sharing, keep up the comments and Remember Safety is as important and the O we get from our visitors.

 

[Sexy BBW]

Every three months like clockwork, checkups monthly

 

[bedtime4bonzo]

not a worker but

I'm getting tested quarterly. I like the lgbt Center at Davie and Bute in Vancouver.

Though one problem with that place is they ask you a bunch of questions about your sexual history because they are part of the center for disease control. However, they are completely non-judgemental, anonymous and free.

I'd like it better if they regularly did the direct HIV test that can pick up the virus even if you haven't developed immunity. You usually only get that if you are donating blood or bone marrow. If they make a viable vaccine for HIV they'll probably have to start.

That is a good place, I have been there before. They do tend to ask alot of quesitons, but then again I would rather be safe then sorry. Free birth control, rubbers, testing etc. Its the best place I have been to, and actually feel comfortable going, no attiude there and they are nice and helpful

 

[Annalise Lane]

There seems to be someone who is messing with this poll ... While I'm sure you think it's funny to do so ... it's wrong.

Or

There are ladies or men out there participating in a dangerous hobby and dont give a shit about their lives or the life of someone else.

I seriously didn't think we'd have any vote on the poll ~ never been tested ~

 

[DeaAphrodite]

I get tested quarterly... would do it more often if I worked more.

Here in PG, there is just one clinic and they will give test results for everything but HIV over the phone. One has to show up in person to get HIV results... Is it the same everywhere? Will clinics in other cities provide test result over the phone?

 

[Annalise Lane]

In Edmonton you have to show up for all test results. They give you a little card with a # on it.

Yes TJ I guess I should have put for everyone, instead the poll was for Ladies, My mistake.

I go once a month & inbetween i go again to pick up hard copy results. They know exactly what i do which makes the visit as thorough as possible. I get swabbed, poked & prodded in every orifice & have a good old chat about everything for about an hour. As doctors & nurses they pass no judgement with regard to patient care & they are the experts when it comes to sexual health.

Although i have a family physician who also knows what i do, bloodwork has to be done elsewhere, the results for everything take longer to get back & visits are limited to gov't set 15 min.

Appointments (1-2 wk wait) are mandatory unless you line-up just before they open at 8:30.

STD results come back in a few days & you can phone with regard to those but HIV hard copy requires you show picture id at the time of testing & you must come back in person, usually 2 weeks later for another appointment whereupon the nurse/doctor will give you the results.

Also, although there is no test for herpes, you can get an antibody test at this clinic (cost $200). Otherwise, this is a totally free service and anyone who has sex imho should go to this clinic atleast once for a thorough checkup & get educated on the risks of foolin' around.

Interesting read to say that least.

 

[ScottyTwoHotty]

Seems like only the ladies are replying, we (the guys) need to fess up too and get tested.

Already do. Maybe not as often as I should as I only go every 3 months. Mind you, according to the poll, 7 people don't get tested at all. So I guess I'm doing the right thing.
It's a 2 for 1 deal when a guy goes for an STD test. Not only do we get examined for STD's but we also get our brains checked as well.
