...for YOUR OWN GOOD, never mind the good of all
I thought it was a good discussion, some feathers get ruffled, but they grow back.
Well, actually I was asking if everyone had the Hep B vaccine and NO ONE responded in the affirmative! That is just stupid for providers not to get that vaccine.
Point two. I am annoyed by the overuse of the word "Drama" on these boards. Look up the definition. It has nothing to do with any of this or most posts on any of the boards..
My mom was dying of cancer, which I and the Dr's knew, but I could not bring myself to tell her. So I called my cousin down to talk with her about her impending doom. That's Drama.

The way I see it, any test interval is better than none, and there are many providers that never get tested.

Yes I have had the Hep B vaccination. I had it years ago. I think its a good idea for everyone. Hep B is much more contagious than HIVPoint two.

I like your style. 
Not to the posters post. Kudos for that. But for the nasty attacking and oh so high and mighty posts of some others. Since I am not part of the "in" group I will say what I think.
The thing about std testing is even if you caught something the day after you were tested and went every day, some things wont show up til 6mos later. They have instant tests but those arent as indepth as the test that takes longer to get results. Or this is how it was explained to me. I guess its kinda like being pregnant. You are pregnant but a test wont tell you are right away. Just recently I saw a tv commercial that said something like 10 days before your first missed period. But I am digressing.
I test often enough for me to feel comfortable and I have been in this biz along time and I havent had anything besides a bladder infection that may or may not have been "work" related. So what ever I am doing seems to be working for me.
And if you are being safe and using condoms and using them right, doing oral with a condom, maybe wrapping your body in plastic wrap, well with all that , you still feel the need to go get tested every other week ? What is it that you think you could catch? Oh yeah, add to the list of precautions...heavy screening and only seeing a person or two a month and yet you still feel the need to get tested that often?
Not wanting to start drama ....but I say that is bs.
And for the men that piped in... are you seeing a different girl every month ? And do you get tested every month ? Thats what I thought.
I could see getting tested that frequently if you had a lot of accidents or dont use protection, but with careful precautions every few months is good (for me, it has been) unless you have had something break or in some way have put yourself at risk. Ask your doctor, I am sure he/she will tell you what is safety cautious and what is a germaphobe , anal retentive anxiety ridden phobia
Makes you wonder why someone would choose to have a job that is sooooooo risky to them.

To the people eating popcorn and reading this train wreck of a blog that was MEANT to spread sexual awareness - hiiiiiiiiii sorry you have to see me all sassy but this isn't a blog about which vets office to use it's about something that passes from person to person and because I take the risks like everyone here I try to share what I know to help myself by helping others. HUGS
3.) And to imply that I do bbbj so I must be more at risk
"Oral sex isn't safe sex: blow jobs put both the giver and the receiver at risk of numerous STDs. Fortunately for everyone who enjoys fellatio, there are ways to make the act safer. Using a condom for oral sex won't make your blowjobs less fun, but they will make them much less likely to be something you'll regret."

Yes, you (and I) are more at risk than doing a covered one! And as I said, I know the risks which is why I go very often for testing
Am I a Diva because I know that you are wrong and am sharing your misinformation on an open board and doing so passionately? Ok, I can live with that. Been called worse lately, like a germaphobe.
Items that are sooooo wrong with this post:
1.) I dont take their liquid into me in any way.
Ever hear of precum? Sometimes it's noticeable, sometimes it's just a little. You 100% take precum into your mouth whenever doing a bbbj.
"While unprotected oral sex, both mouth to penis and mouth to vagina, carry statistically lower risks of STD transmittal than unprotected vaginal or anal sex, the risk still exists, according to Stanford University's Sexual Health Peer Resource Center (SHPRC, stanfordshprc.wordpress.com/about/) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, www.cdc.gov).
The key to transmittal of most sexually transmitted diseases is infected body fluids. These can include semen (including pre-cum), vaginal fluid, blood and saliva, though infection from saliva itself is apparently rare. Not really surprising, that last, since saliva is designed to start breaking things down prior to digestion....
Though it is more likely to be passed via vaginal or anal intercourse, HIV can still be, and has been documented to have been, passed through oral sex only. Infected semen/pre-cum or vaginal fluid can enter the body through a cut or sore in any body parts in contact."

2.) it isnt easy getting it in your throat.
"As any doctor at a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic can tell you, it is possible to acquire several forms of sexually transmitted diseases (STD) through oral sex – if the other person if infected...
In May 2011, researchers from University College London revealed that 4 per cent of London sex workers had chlamydia in their throats..."

4% may seem like long odds but that would demonstrate it's not difficult to acquire.

Trust me, not holier than thou and if you read my post and maybe weren't so jaded into not believing providers you could understand I sent all those words before with heart not heat. This post however is in heat because I can't understand your stance and mindset so I am becoming irked... Your posts here have been VERY passive toward me and I am not taking it any more! I sincerely hope you tell us more about what your knowledge base of STD and sexual health is so I can post more articles and comments showing you are ever so wrong and uninformed. My original post was meant to inform a general audience but now I have my star pupil who has sweetly volunteered to have me demonstrate that I have a VAST knowledge of sexual education and STD awareness.
HUGS to everyone! Get tested and be aware! Knowledge is power!

All good questions, however, I recommend speaking with your doctor. I message my doctor on a regular basis and she's always good at getting back to me. I trust her advice over anyone that replies to this thread. She tells me the facts minus the condescending tone. Here's a link that I found helpful.
