| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 4/4/2006 11:56:55 AM | Before I started working as a programmer my field was public health. Here is some general information; it shouldn't be taken as medical advice though. Your doctor or public health department can provide more through information that will fit your particular situation.
The ones that are caused by bacteria or ricksettia are generally curable (although some are now antibiotic resistant). This class includes calimia, gonorrhea, and syphilis among others. Viral infections are generally not generally not as easily treated. Warts can be surgically removed. Herpies symptoms can be managed, but it has no cure. Of course there is HIV. You can get get a vaccine for hepatitis B which can also be transmitted in this mannor. | |

HIV, HPV and Herpes are examples of STD's caused by viruses. There are many strains of these (too many to count) and none of them are truly curable. Symptoms can go into remission and a person may not have any signs in some cases, especially with HPV and Herpes. The virus however is always in the body once it gets there and can in some cases reactivate. It is kind of like when you had chicken pocks as a kid...you can have it reactivate due to stress or re-exposure. Your best bet is to do everything possible NOT to get an STD, and if you do, be open and honest with future partners about it so their health can be protected. | |

As another said, viruses, as opposed to infections, tend to be incurable, though, because they are living, and multiply more rapidly than the blood's T-cell count can combat. But I've heard about ways to kill, or at least immobilize and render dormant, viruses like HIV too. One is a concentrated citric acid (Vitamin C) drip, administered through IV, directly into the bloodstream. Makes the skin break out in a horrible rash, but KILLS the virus, which is then purged through natural waste channels, and, once cured, you can cease the drip. Another is a low-voltage electric "pulse" adminstered via an electrode placed over the vein that confuses and immobilizes the virus.
Of course, these are NOT FDA-approved, because there's no money in them for drug companies, are thus NOT covered by insurance, so you have to pay out of pocket, and are NOT cheap.
Magic Johnson is still alive and walking around 20 years after he publicly declared he was full-blown AIDS. Makes ya wonder what treatment HE went overseas for-! | |

| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/17/2009 7:06:51 PM | | hi... from what I understand ~viruses~ are dead matter, matter from dead cells... the other thing that I understand is that the body expelles toxins from different points like the lungs, the kidneys, intestines or the sexual organs... another thing that I understand is that some toxins are so toxic they store in tissues and can be released into the body randomly... the last point is when the toxins are completely removed, even from places where they are stored, the health returns.... many blessings for health | |

MJ is taking immune boosting and strength/weight gaining drugs like anabolic steroids, testosterone and growth hormone. Most of this is to prevent the wasting associated with HIV/AIDS. | |

| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/18/2009 10:29:18 PM | | Bacterial infections generally are treatable... viral infections are not... even if you don't show symptoms your entire life, you could still be the carrier of something viral so it's important to get STD checks regularly. | |
|
| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/19/2009 1:50:50 PM | | All STD's are definitely curable in about 3000 years. but that doesn't mean you shouldn't go out and have freak-nasty butt sex with anyone that's willing to give it to ya. live your life my man | |

| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/20/2009 9:43:46 AM | I just had unprotected sex last night with a 43 year old woman who claimed to be free of disease. She's not a stranger, but not someone who I really know deeply. Now I deeply regret that decision, an STD would ruin my life. I mean I would like to think she's truthful and sure of what she said, nonetheless I'm paranoid right now. I just feel like expressing this because it's heavy on my mind. Anything to make me feel better?  | |

| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/20/2009 11:11:17 PM | | Depends on your definition of "most". There are over 600 forms of HPV (human papilloma virus). Some cause warts on you hands and feet (not STD's), some cause genital warts, some can severly increase a womans likelihood of having cervical cancer, others just cause abnormal Pap Smears with no effect (some people debate whether some of these have viral components or not). Only the warts can be "cured". Simple fact of the matter is you don't want any STD's...EVER!!! I will always use protection until I sincerely suspect that I will be only having sex with THIS person for the rest of my life. You may feel comfortable if you have never seen them break out with anything after 6-8 months, you may want them tested, you may run around having sex with anything on two legs...but those aren't for me and I would not recommend them. | |

| are most std's cure able ?? Posted: 8/20/2009 11:25:12 PM | Does Dr. Schultz think juices can cure Ebola...because I highly doubt that!?!? Don't take disease advice from someone who hasn't studied communicable diseases in depth (like an epidemiologist), and probably has less microbiology training than a fresh out of college Bio student! A nutritionist should not be confused with a Dietitian (RD behind the name). I could be a nutritionist, all i have to do is say I am one, just like a "therapist". While I am at it I may become an "Awesomist"... all that will be deemed "Awesome" must go through me first. Stupid people can have cool titles too.
google Dr. Schulze
Notice the fine print at the bottom per Dietary Supplement Act, also notices he never says why he is a "Dr". He could have a PhD in "selling garbage" for all he says. | |

hi... from what I understand ~viruses~ are dead matter, matter from dead cells...
And you got that information where?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus
"A virus (from the Latin virus meaning toxin or poison) is a microscopic infectious agent that can reproduce only inside a host cell. Viruses infect all types of organisms: from animals and plants, to bacteria and archaea.[1] Since the initial discovery of tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898,[2] more than 5,000 types of virus have been described in detail,[3] although most types of virus remain undiscovered.[4] Viruses are ubiquitous, as they are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth,[5] and are the most abundant type of biological entity on the planet.[6] The study of viruses is known as virology, and is a branch of microbiology.
Viruses consist of two or three parts: all viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are outside a cell. Viruses vary in shape from simple helical and icosahedral shapes, to more complex structures. They are about 1/100th the size of bacteria.[7] The origins of viruses in the evolutionary history of life are unclear: some may have evolved from plasmids—pieces of DNA that can move between cells—while others may have evolved from bacteria. In evolution, viruses are an important means of horizontal gene transfer, which increases genetic diversity.[8]"
We really need to get back to teaching science. | |

Of course, these are NOT FDA-approved, because there's no money in them for drug companies, are thus NOT covered by insurance, so you have to pay out of pocket, and are NOT cheap.
Here we go again with it's because there's no money it, the government is suppressing it so it must be the next best thing to sliced bread.
The reason these "cures" aren't FDA approved is because they're not cures. Not one has ever stood up to scientific scrutiny to determine if they are effective at treating what they claim. None. Zero.
Kevin Trudeau is notorious for floating this nonsense. He claims he has all these cures yet when asked to present his "evidence", he never does. That is why he's been repeatedly sued by the government. He's falsely claiming something is a drug when it is not because it has not undergone any scientific testing.
The same thing with this nonsense. If he's so sure his "cure" works, submit it for testing. If it works, I'm sure the medical community will be all over him with kudos and the insurance companies will then cover it, just like they do any other medicine.
You sound like a Scientologist and they're nonsense about how vitamins will cure everything. Worked really well for John Travolta's kid, didn't it? | |

Many people who were told they going to die in a few months were cured from this diet. Why doesn't everyone know about it? Because the cure is dirt cheap! Drug companies for sure wouldn't want you know about it.
Vitamins can work if they are natural source, provided you're eating a healthy diet. If you're eating junk and taking vitamins it is not going to help much.

I just think with all the information out there, people will continue to play games with their health. The ones that worry the most are the ones that have their heads full of shyt before getting "busy" and then when it dawns on them later that there were no condoms involved, they want to worry themselves to death. | |
