I think you should know something in case you ever need to be tested for gonorrhea our chlamydia again, which is why the doc inserted the q-tip into your urethra. For at least 10 years, urine testing has been available for the testing of gonorrhea and chlamydia. The urine test detects the bacterial DNA after the amount of DNA has been amplified by a process known as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) or LCD (ligase chain reaction). It's debatable whether the urine test is quite as accurate as the swab test. Nevertheless when looking for gonorrhea or chlamydia in men the swab test should only be done under a few circumstances, which are after a negative urine test when suspicion of infection is high, if the patient doesn't make urine (such as dialysis patients), or if the patient is very ill and cannot risk getting a false negative (which is still very unlikely with the urine test). So if the situation arises again, ask if the urine test is an acceptable alternative.

Here is an Ask . com article about the urine test.

I say this bc I think it's unfair that you had a swab inserted into your urethra bc your doctor hasn't picked up a book in 10 years and I'd like to help you stop it from happening again unnecessarily. I dislike all the doctor-bashing that occurs on this forum but when I read stories like yours, it just confirms how many bad doctors are out there tarnishing the profession's reputation.

i also did a urine test before he swabbed

i think from what your saying because i told him i had been having sex with some new for a month or 2 he just assumed i had it ya know? but she is still my girlfriend going on 2 years this summer and neither one of us has had this problem since plus i always use a condom

I'd agree that the physician in his case should have treated him symptomatically despite positive or negative serology, because of the risk of PID, and single dose directly observed treatment is increasingly used because of noncompliance, especially in younger patients who are concerned about their parents discovering their positive status, or other issues related to the stigma of positive serology for an STD. I think one of the biggest obstacles to successful treatment is that the partner who is infecting the patient often goes untreated, leading to the patient being infected again. I also agree that the C Trachomatis Culture was unnecessary, and as said previously I believe the antibiotics should be administered based on symptoms alone, because of the significant damage that untreated Chlamydia can cause. However, my guess is that the physician administered the swab based on the increased sensitivity of NAAT (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test), and the ability for 100% specific results if the lab is using fluescein-conjugated monoclononal antibodies for staining. Interestingly enough, it was a C Trachomatis culture of the genitourinary epithelials which led to the discovery of the new super resistant strain of Chlamydia (I guess we're calling it the 'Swedish' strain right now, although not fair to the Swedes, lol)...

With regards to doctor bashing...Unfortunately the public has been led to believe that everything is an exact science, when in fact they should be informed that medicine is as much an art as it is science. If they knew the number of diseases for which identical symptoms exist, they would probably better understand the difficulty in arriving at a proper diagnosis, and the reason that diagnosis are differentials, and not 'exacts'. Lol, although I suspect if they knew physicians were picking the best candidate of three to four diseases and treating for that one, they would probably feel less confident. Ultimately, patients are a giant pain in the ass, and I am increasingly irritated by them!

That makes it so much worse that he swabbed you. Just thinking about it makes me squirm. There are few situations in which a urine test won't suffice in a male and a swab test needs to be done. I mentioned those that I know of in my previous post. I hope you never have to go through that again!

I agree, but the forum member that had the swab test is a male. I don't think they can get PID. That's why I think a urine test is sufficient is men but should be used only for screening in women (also the swab test is supposedly not as unpleasant for females). Also given the risk of PID in women, a swab and subsequent culture needs to be done in case initial treatment fails.

I've never heard of Swedish chlamydia and thought I did a good job of keeping up to date. What kind of medicine do you practice?

I'm guessing you've been practicing for a longer time than me as I don't exactly agree with your last sentence, although I'm sure you're half kidding.

I agree with what you said about the long list of differentials and so forth. I think in conjunction with that, we've had such an exponential growth in medical knowledge in the past 20 years that is increasingly harder to stay current, especially for a PCP. There has been the development of completely new fields of medicine, such as medical genomics, which I admittedly know very little about. I think the average patient just isn't aware of how much there is to stay on top of. But I also think that too many doctors are unwilling to learn above what is required by continuing medical education mandates. The majority of the docs I know over 40 don't even use a PDA/smartphone for medical applications, which I think is essential and would result in an even more dramatic improvement in the quality of care provided if adopted by the older doctors.

On this forum alone we see too many stories of ppl out on TRT without an adequate work up, without consideration of hcg/AI/DHEA/pregnenolone and so forth. There are too many stories of young ppl who are put on TRT without the option of clomid and or HCG as treatment options which is done without regard to the person's fertility. At the very least before a young patient is placed on TRT, he should be counseled about impaired fertility, sperm storage, and alternative treatment options. This includes adequate supplementation with vit C, vit D, and a whole list of potentially useful supplements that won't impair fertility and MIGHT improve test production (and subsequently avoiding TRT), such as tongkat, DAA, tribulus, longjack root, ashwagandha, and more. Then the patient can mange an informed decision. Too many doctors are prescribing TRT without an appropriate knowledge base, but at the same time there is such a need for it and not enough capable doctors. I think this is even a bigger problem when it comes to female HRT, where there are many women seeking treatment but few doctors willing and able to do so. With all that said, I don't know if I have the right answer to these problems.

I think the biggest factor with regards to that last paragraph is TIME. When you need to see a patient roughly every 15 minutes, most guys are just going to punch in an ICD-9/10, write him a script, and move him/her along the conveyor belt, and if you're practicing emergency medicine in most places you're work is evaluated on RVU's, Relevant Value Units, as a way to gauge productivity and gauge compensation. Unfortunately, I think that puts way too much emphasis on seeing patients quickly, rather than providing positive outcomes. Compensating a physician based on outcomes is a much harder task as it would require tracking patients after discharge. Who knows what the right answers are, complicated stuff....

[boz]

What have i started?

I will say this though, love is one of the strongest bonding, emotions a human being can feel, nothing can become inbetween one another IF it is true love. When you find the right person you will reflect back on this and say hey maybe that boz guy was right.

Some of the responses that have been given here and im not going to quote anyone to save more debate, i just shake my head and think really? They way some people think baffles me, than again i used to fall victim to this way of thinking. Strong guidance and advise helped me discover what life truly has to offer, between you and another person.

Seems like this thread has gone way off track, come on lets keep this on me im the one with the problem!

Nothing wrong hookers bra if i was a women i would be one or a stripper. Theres one little brothel in my town that do fly in fly out hookers. They bring them in for a week the girls make 20grand for a weeks work they go home for a week then they bring in a new batch of birds. Such a easy way to make money.

The worlds oldest trade. Yet one more thing that should be made legal along with drugs. Stop wasting our tax money on stupid stuff like that. Another one that has been proven over and over in countries where it's legal they have far less violent crimes against women especially rape.

America sucks.

The only thing I like about being American is we can pretty much travel to any country unmolested. Oh, and we have Chipotle.

[Perseverance1]

The way I look at sex is you gotta pay no matter what...you're either paying with cash or you're paying with time....and hell, sometimes you end up paying a little of both, and for what? The illusion that it was "free" or whatever?

Currently I am at a juncture in my life where my time is a thousand times more valuable to me than my money. Somewhat soon that will change but I still don't think I'll waste my time talking to girls. Almost all American women figure out a way to annoy me or make me not respect them at all within our first real conversation, be it 5 minutes or thirty.

Hell, last night is a prime example...went out with one of my boys and some drunk chick started talking to us...she was a solid 8 but goddamn was she annoying, and definitely either grew up in a trailer or near one.....ehhh, just not my thing really. The Internet or paying is the only way I want to get girls I think.

They cant really but they try because its a way to collect revenue. Bust a John and make several thousand $$$ They give them the option of paying a BIG ticket or fighting it and they say 99% pay the fine according to one of the investigation shows on TV recently. It's really a joke just like the war on drugs. It's all about looking busy and pretending they are doing something productive. If they legalized prostitution and drugs they would not need 1/2 the cops they have now or at least the cops could focus on real crimes. You know what would happen though? They would just pass out more speeding tickets. lol

It's legal in Nevada outside Clark county. But it has to be through the proper channels. You can't just have hookers running wild on the streets.

Chlamydia screening and reporting are likely to continue to expand in response to the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) annual measure, which assesses chlamydia screening coverage of sexually active young women who receive medical care through commercial or Medicaid managed care organizations.⁵ The annual chlamydia screening rate increased from 25.3% in 2000 to 41.6% in 2007 among sexually active females aged 16–25 years (or aged 16–26 years during 2000–2002) who were enrolled in commercial or Medicaid health plans in the United States during 2000–2007.⁶ In 2009, women aged 16–20 years in commercial plans had a chlamydia screening coverage rate of 41.0%, while those in Medicaid had a rate of 54.4%.⁷
