First off, i'd like to say i'm sorry if this topic seems too emotional or anything like that- i just have held in so much and i needed an outlet.Now over a year ago i started noticing symptons of a few STDs (since i was 16? dont ask ) Well anyway, just recently i've noticed a pretty rapid weight lost, or i'm just paranoid?... always been sorta skinny Well anyway, i was confused as to wait to do, and most of all scared to death of the outcome if i go see a doctor. and truthfully i would've gladly just said F IT and dont nothing about it, but i try to push on for my mother and family >So anyway, months later after obvious signs i feel like i'm at my end with all this, symptoms becoming more obvious and on top of that my blood pressures messing up so its like a MUST that i see a doctor. my problem is i dont see myself doing it.How did you guys manage to get the courage to tell all this stuff to a doctor? i mean i just really dont see myself doing it but i have no choice if i want to live. i'm just abit worried about what steps they take to test/treat people cause i've never been a fan of doctors but obviouslly this is my last resort. Once again i'm sorry if this is too emotional or anything, but its how i was feeling atm, cause i needed a way to vent.

I'm serious.

You're rude pynes!Don't worry perdoname. Things will be ok. I'll be praying for you.

Don't be afraid to ask the doctor anything at all. You're better safe than sorry.
-
I guess i'm just really feeling insecure right now and worried, i'd just like to know what i'm getting into so i can be prepared and try to brace myself mentally.
-
I gotcha. I really hope everything turns out ok. I'm sure once everyone else wakes up they'll have much better advice but give us an update what happens later.
-
sure thing, and thanks. edit going to sleep for now, i'll try and reply when i'm awake.

PerdonaMe, welcome to AfraidToAsk. Sorry for the idiot Pynes, he's been got rid of. Can I ask, what are the symptoms you've had? Quite often people believe symptoms to be from STDs that in fact aren't symptoms of STDs at all. Weight loss can happen for a lot of different reasons, for example, including anxiety.

Truthfully i'm sorta ashamed to say what sympthoms i have but let's just say i am SURE i have about 3STDs :frowning:

I don't know why you're so sure that you have STDs, but I'll take your word for it.If you can't discuss it on an anonymous forum, where no one knows who you are, I don't know what to tell you. Doctors deal with this sort of stuff all the time, and it's no big deal to them. You can go to a clinic like Planned Parenthood, or at least call them and ask for advice. But the longer you wait, the more screwed up you're going to be, so don't be such a pansy and go do what you need to do.
