Rants, Raves and Opinions AKA "The Octagon"

[QUOTE=IlvblckGrls;3606332]So, I'm totally going to end up oversharing, but I'm wondering how other guys "prepare" for a visit with a provider.

When not seeing a provider, I jerk off pretty much every day. You know, to clear my mind. It works. But, ultimately, when that gets boring, I'll try to save up some funds and hook up with someone.

Let's say I know I can probably get away on a Thursday. I'll stop jerking off on Sunday or Monday. This will really build part of my anticipation for the visit on Thursday. Yeah, it can be hard to keep a level big head when the little guy is all backed up, but it makes me even more "excited" to go on a visit.

However, this also means The Little Man has a hair trigger and is super ready to blow. This makes it hard to make good use of all the time I paid for.

I'm starting to think I should not alter my jerking off habits, so as to maybe be able to last longer. At the same time, being well-drained makes me less motivated.

Just curious: am I all alone on this? LOL. Just wondering how other people deal with such inner turmoil.[/QUOTE]Considering we post here about dreams we want no one else in our everyday lives to know about, LOL.

This isn't really an issue for me. My equipment was working fairly well when I was drinking, but it works better than ever since I quit drinking, and I'm in my early 50's. So I can be pretty confident I'll perform just fine so long as I haven't relieved myself in the prior 24 hours. Last year, I saw two different providers on consecutive days and had no trouble performing on the second day. A benefit of kicking the booze habit and having a halfway decent diet.

I space things out to make my viagra last I get 12 blue pills to last about 2. 5 months cut them in half per doctors order and I'm usually down to my last when my next order is mailed to me. Got to love the VA. If I run out I go to my local Arab store and grab me a 10.00 magic pill yes that's the name of it and it works great. Being 60 I won't take a chance on not having my pick me up Jr works without the help but that little guy has been known to put me in some embarrassing situations. HL29.

What to you all think? Should we insist or covers or take a chance and offer BBBJs. If this really becomes an out of control problem in the US I'm planning to only offer CBJs. How many of you consider this a deal breaker?

Not that everybody cares, or would tell their partner if they had it, but that just means it could be the gift that keeps on giving. Forever. That doesn't sound pleasant. Well, stay safe everyone!

Gonnorhea is TREATABLE Google the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta or the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minn Both will tell you Gonnorhea is treatable as is Tric and Syph. No need to be scared of something that is curable Doc.

There are now several strains that are top tier antibiotic resistant and do not respond to these drugs anymore. They are working on several work-arounds but not sure if it will respond since the bacteria is easily mutated. Thanks to those who do not follow directions like take all of the antibiotic and do not partake in any sexual activity until cured. Those two issues and the fact that most cases do not produce any symptoms so when taking medication for another issue like sinus infection the bacteria become resistant to that drug as well because it is generally not strong enough (dose vs time vs half life shelf load) to sure the clap.

I can take or leave BJs, but when I do get them, I get a CBJ. The risk of getting a STD from a BBBJ is low compared to the STD risk from getting a BBFS, but there is still a risk. My strategy has worked so far, as I've never caught anything.

Let me add this one addendum. I NEVER fuck a street walker or any lady identified by my fellow mongers as drug users A no brainer. Having been overseas in the military and an American college grad I can usually tell the ladies who display the symptoms having grown up in the 60's-80's If not sure I do NOT partake So far I have gotten some excellent psy and BBJCIMs some with and some without swallow. Have caught nothing but will take the word of Mayo and CDC over anyone on this board when it comes to what is and is not curable. Rumors are a 1 dollar a dozen in this hobby so to each their own. I do not judge ladies or men in this I just like my licking and skin on skin but do my homework among my fellow mongerers Never go by what looks good but what is classified as a good sex partner. We all take risks stay safe, get tested, choose your partner wisely Happy hunting.

Reason being the over usage of penicillin from 1945 to present. Sulpha such as Bactrim was used but is not the usual regimen now due to over usage The 99 percent cure rate now from tests and blinds is the following 320 mg of gemifloxicin with 2 gs of Azithromax quenolones such as Levoquen and Tequen are too strong and very low tolerance. Your best bet is to do a 30 day testing when sexually active. Combine it with as someone correctly pointed out in and earlier post by MAKING SURE YOU TAKE ALL OF YOUR PRESCRIBED REGIMEN and not just part of it stopping when you feel better The best way to build up std resistance to drugs is taking partial regimens and developing a resistance to the pharma you are fighting the disease with. There is no Gon resistant drug strain that can not be cured It is finding out what individual or duo partnership drugs to use to fight it and being TESTED Cephlosporins are very ineffective agains Gon do to the wide usage from past to present Hope that helps Sorry on the spellings but NOT a Doctor.
