Symptoms
Syphilis can cause a range of symptoms or none at all. In the early stage of disease, symptoms may be easily missed. Syphilis can progress more quickly and severely in people with HIV, and may present slightly different symptoms.

Shortly after becoming infected with syphilis (primary syphilis) a small sore, spot or ulcer (called a chancre) may appear at the site of infection, usually on the penis, in or around the anus or vagina or in the mouth. The chancre does not hurt and usually heals quite quickly. It can be accompanied by swollen glands.

Secondary syphilis can cause a rash, swollen glands, fever, muscle pain, headache, ringing in the ears, and in rare cases, meningitis. Dark brown sores, about the size of a penny piece may also appear on the hands and feet. The rash and sores are highly infectious. Secondary syphilis normally develops within six months of exposure.

Tertiary syphilis usually develops within ten years of infection and can cause damage to almost all the internal organs and the brain (neurosyphilis). If left untreated syphilis can cause death.

Diagnosis
A general sexual health check-up will include a blood test for syphilis, and any lesions will be swabbed. It can take up to three months for the body to develop antibodies to the bacteria that cause syphilis, so a test taken shortly after exposure may not detect infection. There is some evidence to suggest that tests for syphilis are not as reliable in HIV-positive people. If brain involvement is suspected, a lumbar puncture may be carried out to assess the extent of disease.

Treatment
Syphilis is usually treated with a course of penicillin injections. People who are allergic to penicillin are given a course of antibiotic tablets, or may be offered penicillin desensitisation where doses are built up gradually over a short period. People with HIV usually receive higher doses of medication for longer. To ensure that the syphilis is completely cured it is vital to have all your prescribed injections or take all your medication. To avoid infecting other people with syphilis, or being re-infected with the bacteria, it is important to avoid sex altogether until treatment has been completed and you have been given the all clear.

Follow-up blood tests will be carried out at intervals of 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months to ensure the infection has gone.

If you really diagnosed with syphillis, you ought to be brave and responsible to your partner. Tell her about your plight. Things will work out one way or another.

What do you mean as how much time you have? You ain't going to die unless you totally ignore the outbreaks without treatment and only in worse case scenerio would your life ceased. Otherwise, you will just be walking around with sores, welts, pain and etc. For cures, there are solutions to the outbreaks but no permanent solution to totally eradicate the virus from your system.

Being irresponsible was how you got the disease and being irresponsible was how you passed it on to your gf. Why not be a real man and tell her the truth instead of just being a "man" by gender. Furthermore, if you are too irresponsible to disclose an important information such as this to your future wife, do you seriously think you are responsible enough to get married and have kids?

Lastly, your parents are secondary when it comes to your sex life as your primary responsibilty is towards your sex partners. Currently, there's no law against syphilis or herpes sufferers to disclose their conditions to their partners but personally, i think there should, in order to contain the widespread of the disease to the general public thru the acts and irresponsibilities of individuals.

Herpes got no cure but can control the number of outbreaks..syphilis very easy to cure just have to get a few shots of pennicilin or a course of doxycycline will get rid of it easily..

bro if you love your gf slowly break the news to her and accompany her to the DSC for checkup

as for herpes, you could try to get medication to control the outbreak but there's no cure for it. however, for herpes it's really nothing serious that you really need to worry about since some herpes patient never have an outbreak even until they die.

How do you know that your GF is infected ? Did she tell you that she is feeling pain ?

Please go to a private clinic in Geylang for a quick jab and anti-botic.

Drinking canberry juice helps to reduce inflamation in the long run...
