I have been told the same thing about the Health Dept. But I think is based on income. I need to call and find out for sure. My insurance covers the testing also but it's just once a year. I like to be tested at least four times a year. A fellow member told me about this website that does a 10-panel test for $$. https://www.stdcheck.com/std-test-pricing.php If anyone knows about the Health Dept. Please let us know.
Pilot.
I'm late to the discussion, but I'd like to chime in on stdcheck.com. I use this service and get tested 4 times a year. More depending on if I have engaged in any risky activities out of the ordinary or had any condom break scares. This company used to take insurance which covered everything, but now they don't and its $200 for a full 10-panel test as noted above. They also offer an early-detection HIV test that can be added on for an additional couple hundred. The difference being that the standard HIV test included in the 10 panel can detect HIV as early as 3-4 months?, but the early test I believe can detect within a couple of days. I like this service because everything is done online, including the Drs. Order for your tests, and you go to a quest diagnostic anytime where they take a urine sample and a few vials of blood. I like this setting since people go to quest diagnostics for all types of reasons, cholesterol, blood sugar, drug testing, etc. Also, you don't even have to tell them why you are there. You literally walk in, give them your name and I'd, and they can look up what tests have been sent to them electronically. Point being you can be there for anything and you don't feel awkward like you do when you are in a std clinic (or at least I do anyway). They also guarantee results within 3 days, which is a plus for me. I can say that most of the time I get the results in 1 - 2 days. Also, while I have not caught anything (knock on wood) if you should happen to test positive for something they set you up with doctors who will write you a prescription for whatever you need. If you have a wife or girlfriend and are in a situation where your SO keeps track of your expenses the great thing is that the charge comes up as some lab. If you are ever asked anything about it you can just say this was to have blood work done for something other than STDs of course. Yes $200 will set some of us back, but its a small price to pay to have piece of mind and I try to keep this amount put to the side just in case I have a health scare. This is also a good service if you do not want this type of tests to show up on your insurance invoice, which again is good for those with a SO. If anyone has anymore questions about this service feel free to PM me. Hope this helps.

I did an outcall when I was kinda new to the board. The guy half way threw the process told me he was a cop and would arrest me if I didn't make him cum. I flipped out on him and he said he was just role playing. GTFO!!
Damn, girl, talk about memories, nothing better than the freakin luving venues you used to provide. Ah, those were the days when an annual pass provided sensual pleasures beyond belief.
TMC gave the board a referral before his untimely demise at the hands of A2. He said there is a free clinic on North Mills for testing. Haven't been yet, but plan to check it out.

So, here is the way this conversation went down with a random hired stagehand I was working with in Phoenix. He is a young guy and I am guessing he brought this up with me because I do that father figure thing pretty well:
Him: Damn, if fuckin' hurts to pee. What's up with that?
Me: Ummmmmmmm, I don't know you very well, but I got to ask, have you had sex with someone different lately?
Him: What are you fuckin' sayin'?
Me: Look. I am just sayin', burning when you pee is classic for the clap. I'm just asking, have you fucked anyone recently bareback?
Him: Just one girl, we were drunk, and it was just one time.
Me: Go get tested.
Him: Where?
Then it occured to me that I didn't know the answer to that. I mean, I know where I get tested because it is covered under my health insurance. But this guy is a hired gun, a freelancer, and I have no idea if he even has insurance. Plus, I don't know how his plan might or might not cover that.
So, here is my question, and I hope it generates some honest, open conversation and sharing of ideas (and I hope the trolls don't do what trolls do, but am sure they will figure a way to fuck it up), where do you get tested and how often?

Go to the county Health Dept. They test and treat there and it's cheap (or so I've been told.) I have my own private insurance myself. He could also go to one of those cheap walk-in clinics. I had to use one before when I had an ear infection and couldn't get in to see my regular doctor because he was booked up. It cost me 50 bucs for the visit and they gave me what I needed. You can Google it for whatever city that you are in. Be sure to include the words: cheap or inexpensive in the search. They're out there and they usually state the appointment price on their website.

Why spend the time and effort to do all that? Just pay the money and get over it. Some dudes are just dbag's no matter what. If you have to get a fake badge to try to rip off an escort, how pathetic is that.
