I met my patient, a 28-year-old cisgender male, while I was an attending on the Infectious Diseases consult service at an academic hospital. He told me that he had no significant medical history until about a week prior when he started having subtle changes in his vision. When he was admitted to the hospital, he was having sudden left-sided weakness that made him collapse at work. After I examined him, I found symptoms consistent with uveitis, an inflammation of the eye, as well as signs consistent with a stroke. His physical exam revealed a rash on his trunk that he said he had for about a month. His sexual history included sex with both men and women, and he reported three male sex partners in the last month. He reported no drug use and consumed alcohol primarily on the weekends, never exceeding four drinks at one time.
I asked myself: What could possibly cause a stroke in an otherwise healthy 28-year-old? I ordered the standard battery of tests for a stroke, all of which were negative. An astute intern, who wondered about the rash, sent a rapid blood test for syphilis. Mystery solved — he had neurosyphilis and ocular syphilis. Without treatment, those conditions can lead to blindness and to dementia, permanent paralysis, and even death.

They should also get sugar pills for their AIDS.
Easiest way is to KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS!
Worked for me. At 77 years of age, no VD ever! Great fun to go to the medical facilities in the military and turn in my records. You bypass a long line of sad faced GIs and Airmen at the VD clinic.
But don’t ever say sticking your penis in a porta potty at the county fair chili cookoff (anus of another promiscuous homosexual) is unhealthy.
All of which could have been prevented by abstention or a condom. 🙄
Abstinence in singleness and fidelity in marriage (real marriage, M/W) is really the ONLY reliably safe way. Even condom are surprisingly compromised in reliability.
Besides, condoms are soooo 1990s. Every sodomite wants to "bareback" these days and denigrate anyone wanting to wear a condom. Call it "safe-sex shaming."
PrEP was suppose to be the silver bullet against HIV/AIDS, but as a result, STDs have shot through the stratosphere to record levels as an unintended consequence.
“They should also get sugar pills for their AIDS.”
AIDS is the single reason we have HIPPA now.
Wouldn’t want to stigmatize the little darlings, would we?
The reason males add gay sex to their repertoire is they can get their sexual needs met at the snap of the finger. “12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. 13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness . . . I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.” —Romans 6 NIV
Why not just neuter WJC?
I refuse to answer a form question on sex that has more than 2 possible selections. That question doesn't apply to me unless the selections are ONLY "male" and "female."
