good question - me, along with annual physical. curious though. in close-in dc, can any fellow hobbyist kindly suggest a few specific free/cashncarry/walkin/or anon clinics? i for one, would like to test more frequently/less $$s.
Just curious. How often, if at all, do you get tested? There are plenty of places in the metro area that offer free or low cost, anonymous and/or confidental testing.
Personally, once a year.
I get tested every three months without fail. Use requestatest.com. I can go to any of their approved collection centers in the US. Since I travel a lot this is great. I like the "peace of mind" package. A wonderful provider in San Diego told me about me.
I read somewhere that as provides, we should get tested every 90 days and so I do. My doctor dosn't completely understand my reasoning, however I always get have it done.
diseases can take up to six months to show their true colors. That's the route I go to ensure that nothing ever goes undetected. Of course practicing safe sex is the best way to hopefully not contract anything!
