not that bad actually...unless you actually have an infection down there. Just uncomfortable really!

I have been going to my local Sexual Health Clinic, and been getting the all clear.

But I have been getting the same symptoms for the past few days. I went today to be told it is thrush, which they gave me a cream for, but it could also be NSU.

You can also get Vaccinations for Hepititus (spl?) which as a good bisexual I did.

I got Hep A jabs when I was 10 for travelling to Poland (which was a suggested requirement at the time - no so now!) and had Hep B jabs when I was 18 to start my nurse training.

Hep C is a worry and on the rise - not sure what is being done about this and Syph is bloody annoying and rather nasty (but completely treatable with one single VERY strong jab - used to be 14 consecuative jobs over 2 weeks - not nice!!)

The dreaded G and other minor ones are treatable from an antibiotic tablet from the chemist on perscription. Never had thrush - I thought it was more common in women than men.

HIV we all know about though it is possible to take a tablet upto 8 hours after sex with an infected person so that the virus doesn't hold.............but that is a complete gamble not worth considering nless you like the 'thrill of the chase' as it were!

STDs wouldn't be missed if they were suddenly wiped out, would they!!

That and the common cold!

Oh well - such is life!
