Anyone Have An STI Test?

I thought they seemed needlessly rough with that in my case. Perhaps people might share places they got it done without possibly undue distress involved.
I won't mention where I went because I'm criticising them, but it was not any of the places mentioned on this thread.

The swab isn't that bad, it a tiny sting I mean less then a needle in the arm.

The way people are talking about it here you would swear they are chopping the top of your knob off.

Oh toughen up for f*ck's sake.

Only whiny babies give out about what is really only a second or two of minor discomfort.

Do they still make you wait a week, in that week the imagination runs, it definitely persuades you into only practising safe sex.

Here, they give everyone an AIDS test when they first visit the doctor. They poke your finger tip with a needle, and dip it in some liquid to see if it changes colour. Takes about 30 seconds. So I don't know what these places which take 2 weeks are doing.

They arn't only testing for HIV syphilis gonorrhoea callidnya 9spelling) etc.

what is this about cotton buds, and swabs and needles in the eye of the penis? :rolleyes:

it's a tiny, tiny like scraper spoon, like the ones they use in chemistry to get the powder out of test tubes, goes just inside the eye of the penis and as has previously been posted, you seriously dont even feel it two minutes later, it's like as if you want to scratch yourself to get rid of the irritation but you know you cant.

i've been having STI tests done regularly for years simply as part of my regular health checkup and its not nearly even a fraction as dramatic or as painful as some posters are making out here.

last time i went now a couple of weeks ago the nurse didnt use the sample scraper, just took a blood sample from my arm and a urine test, i asked about the scraper and she said they dont need to do that any more. as minidazzler said though, some places still use it, and it's NOT the worst thing in the world ffs! :rolleyes:

christ we all talk about modern ireland and getting away from the catholic way of thinking, etc, but going by some of the posts in this thread you would swear some posters were still stuck back in ignorant old ireland! :rolleyes:
