Наткнулся на фразу tumble between the sheets в тексте. Полез искать. Ни один словарь не дал результатов. Просто вбил в гугл. Единственное полное совпадение привело меня на страничку, где консультируют по вопросам генитального герпеса... сам по себе прелестный факт, но, почитав содержимое странички, я едва не прослезился.

$200 Donation For This Simple Question (HERPES SIMPLEX, 2009)
Dec 19, 2009


Hi Dr Bob, Scott from CA. Umm... how do I start.? Ok here goes.

I've a gf for about 6 months now. Before we engage in any kind of unprotected sex, we both had HIV and STDs test about 3 weeks after being together and all came back NEGATIVE. She told me that she did not have any form of sex with anyone for past 11 months since she broke off with her previous bf. I too did not have any form of sex with anyone for past 10 months since I broke off with my ex gf. Which means the 1st test was conclusive right?

But I'm a very paranoid guy so I still continue to have protected sex with my gf for the next 2 months and did the HIV and STDs tests for 2nd time. All the test came back NEGATIVE again. We both went home and had unprotected sex. The problem is, in my mind, I'm still thinking about HIV everytime I had unprotected sex with her. Maybe this is because my ex gf cheats on me...... I'm not sure.

I've a very simple question for you Dr Bob. Is HIV my problem or I'm just being paranoid here?

Today, my gf went to the doctor's office regarding Herpes Simplex due to 2 small lesions appearing on the lips area and the doctor prescribe both Acyclovir in onintment form as well as tablet form (1000mg per day for 6 days). Doctor says there is nothing much to worry about because Herpes is extremly common. I'm thinking about it day and night to the point that I'm going crazy. Isn't Herpes the thing that have something to do with STDs like gonorrhea and stuff like that? Please enlighten me Dr Bob.

By the way, I've been a loyal fan of your forum for many years which is why I practice very safe sex. I'll also be making a $200 donation to your foundation for all your years of advice and your strong determination to keep on helping people around the world. Thank you Dr Bob. You're truly a hero.

Response from Dr. Frascino

Hi,

Assuming everyone is telling the truth about their last tumble between the sheets, yes, your HIV tests would be considered conclusive.

I do not believe you are being paranoid about HIV if you are having unprotected sex! There is always the possibility your girlfriend may have sex outside your relationship. There is also the worry of an unwanted pregnancy. For more carefree sex, why not just consistently use latex or polyurethane condoms???

Regarding Herpes labialis (cold sores), your doctor is correct. It's extremely common. See below. I'll reprint some information from the archives that discusses Herpes simplex and its relationship to HIV.

I'm delighted you are such a loyal fan and that you'll be making a tax-deductible donation to The Robert James Frascino AIDS Foundation (www.concertedeffort.org). Your one gift will touch many lives in desperate need and it will earn you loads of excellent cosmic karma for your generosity.

Happy Healthy Holidays.

Dr. Bob
