Aids Test

Since Bp's are notorious for promiscuity, I must ask? how many of you have taken a aids test? Its really a serious concern when having sex these days. You don't have to answer, just wanted to give you something to think about? I for one, have had 2 test, clean both times....

When I next have sex I will have a test.
But that won't be until after I stop celebrating for three days.

I've gotten tested every year since I was 13 (did it so wrong because I was raped) I'm very proactive in my sexual health. I go to my OB once a year for my exam and blood work and I always come out clean. Since I'm a bit older, and now a mother I'm make wiser decisions when I have sex and almost ALWAYS use protection now.

Do you think the aids scare has slowed down Bp's and promiscious behavior?

Hmm, well it hasn't slowed me down haha I'm a total nympho but like I said I am a lot smarter now about sex than I was just 5 yrs ago.

I would say, for me, I'm just more careful about using protection.

Gosh I can not count the times I have done it. I had one ever since I started having sex. The school offered it to us threw the school nurse. And then usually when I go in for my yearly pap I get everything done. I think it is important to do no matter if you have not changed sex partners etc etc... Because yes you could be doing everything right.. That does not mean everyone is!

OH and I forgot to add.. I do it also because I get nervous when I get new tatoo's. Even though I know there clean needles.. But tell my head that.. lol

Haven't had the need to have a test for 11 years. Had all the sex I ever care to in my life. On to other things.

BUT, when my toes and fingers went numb from a medication the doc gave me, he wanted to do blood work and check for syphilis. OOPs, could not convince him that the test was not needed. Just wanted to save the money.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
