STDs and pilot medical

Post by higherthanyou »

So I had a bit of a layover in Bangkok.
I might have caught an STD of some sort.
I am wondering if I should get tested or not. Will a positive test adversely affect my medical status?
Thanks for the help.
A bit of an embarrassing question

Get treated by a doc as soon as you can. Do not allow it to set in because then it will be a longer road to recovery. Treatment within 48 hours of symptoms is the best. If you wait you could be on a long road of treatment depending what it is.

Discussing the issue with the treatment doc can be embarrassing I suppose but just suck it up. The doc won't care anyways.

If is it gets cleared up, why say anything to your medical examiner? You don't report the flu either?

Because if it was true you can be sure I’d be using my main account.

I mean… hypothetically.
