Great place to be to tested!

Stay safe and have fun!

There is a place called 'The Center' near downtown they cater to LGBT lifestyle but anyone can go in and get free testing. It's 100% free no insurance required. I go there all the time, the person will ask a few person questions which is standard the funniest one to me is "Have you ever had sex in exchange for money". Of course I have but I always tell them No.

I remember her, she was awesome. Haven't heard that name in a long time.

Zooman what a coincidence!

Mica myka was just creeping on your post wondering if your pms were open. Would absolutely love to catch up with you.

I'm in Asheville NC but I visit Florida often and when I do next I will have to visit Orlando. You are one of my most atf atf's!! I love you!

I don't get out much and haven't been doing this a long time but thought it was time to get tested. Never done that before so looking for recommendations on where I can get this done in the Orlando area. I kind of want fastest cheapest testing.

The Center is a good chioce as they will give you a rapid HIV test with the other tests that they offer, BUT they do not do the "full boat" of tests so to speak. The Health Department does all the tests and it's always been 100% free for me. They even have a seperate area set aside for this STI testing so you aren't mixed in with the general population of snotty nosed kids, addicts trying to get pain meds and such. In the segregated area, you are there in a waiting area with other degenerates, just like you and me. LOL. It's where I go and they report back quickly (like 2 days or less) via a private sign in account online, if you so desire.

Someone else mentioned Quest or a Walk in Lab. They are good too BUT they charge up to $250 for the testing and your info is no less secure than at the Heath Dept. There are some on line services that contract though Quest and other places where you can remain anonymous. They charge about $200 for the full testing. Also, "The Center" that was mentioned, you can also remain fairly anonymous (if that's a hang up for you) but remember, they do less complete testing.

If you have syphilis or HIV, any lab HAS to report it to the Heath Dept by law (is what the online service stated in their disclaimer) and you will be contacted by same to assure you follow treatments.

This is based on my experiences and some services at these places may have changed, added or removed.

I get why people want to use a text app, like you said, it's easy and has little to no cost. That said, I prefer a burner. If you use your personal phone, it has GPS and could be traced. My personal phone even sends me a map once a month of everywhere I've been. When I'm meeting with a provider, I can either turn off my personal phone or leave it behind. Either way, I've got the burner with me and turned on and I can communicate with the provider without worrying about whether my location services is on. Plus, all the apps on your phone want to exchange information, this includes your contacts, phone numbers, pictures, videos, etc. While you do have some control over that, a burner eliminates the issue of information being exchanged, my personal phone has NONE of the info on my burner and my burner has NONE of the information on my personal phone. Before I got a burner, I almost accidentally sent a text to my SO from the texting app rather than from my personal number. Also, if you do get busted, LE may very well take your phone as evidence. If you've got a burner, then they're only taking your burner phone with that information on it. If you've got a personal phone, then they're taking the personal phone with all the personal information on it. As to your comment about the SO finding an extra phone, I've got that covered. When not in use, mine is hid very well, highly improbable she'd ever find it. And, if she did, there's no way to say it even belongs to me as it's in a location that could theoretically be accessed by someone else. Trust me, I get why some guys prefer texting apps. But, for me, I definitely prefer the burner.

This. Everybody's situation is different do what's best for you.

My Tracphone just stopped working due to the cell 3 g to 5 g after about 9 years or so.

I have been in the hobby for about 11 years and fought it for about a year and a half with out a burner and then realizing the it is near impossible to fully play without it.

Guess I am shopping for a new smartphone for the switch.

I heard it was happening at the beginning of the year. Bought a new phone however with the ol reliable working just rode it out. Couple days ago I was in need so sent texts to my reliable go to gals. Not one replied, the phone showed them going thru would deduct minutes and everything. Wrong they went nowhere. Guess I will be activating the new one shortly. . damn inflation the new one is 20 a month vs 20 for 3 months for the old one.

Cheers Jesse.

What is the purpose of a burner phone when there are so many apps? Seems more risky to me to have an extra phone especially if you have an SO. An app is not traceable and you can just turn off all notifications so it doesn't ring. I use 3 different apps, 1 that is in my contacts under a fake name on my real number for alibies to get out of the house, I can send myself a text and answer that text without my phone ringing back at me (text+), 1 that I can change the number on once every 10 days (text now), and 1 that I only use with trusted contacts that I know won't text or call at unwanted hours (textfree). All 3 are set to have no notifications unless I am out of the house trying to make contacts. All are set up on fake emails so they can't be traced back to me. So why would I want an extra phone for the SO to find and start asking questions?

Quest or any urgent care clinic can get you a test request.

Personally witnessed this happening yesterday afternoon at 330 PM. ! undercover in hawaiian shirt, 3 wearing masks going in and out and 2 others outside.

Be careful guys as this place should barely be on their radar compared to MM, ND and you.

For some reason the jail website booking page hasn't been update since March 1. I did find a 48 year old Asian woman that was arrested on 3/3 for:

#1 unlicensed practice of a health care prof.

Statute: 456.065 (2)(d)(1) (third degree felony).

#2 case: 2214587.

Statute: 796.07 (2)(e) -100 (second degree prosti misdemeanor).

#3 misdemeanor / second degree prostitution / lewdness 1st viol.

Statute: orange county sheriff office (796.07 (2)(e) -100).

#4 unlicensed practice of a health care prof.

Statute: 456.065 (2)(d)(1) (third degree felony).

#5 fugitive from justice (arrest w / o warrant).

Statute: 941.14 (third degree felony).

Probably going to be more arrests posted once all the sites update. I was afraid this was going to happen since they had done every other kind of sting over the past few weeks with all the events hitting in back to back to back weeks. Some goods news though, other than the Robert Kraft fiasco, they don't usually go after the guys, just the girls and the spa owners. They hit Tampa hard a while back and got a few favs on RICO charges. Their bail was in 100's of thousands of dollars, and they were just masseuses, not the owner. He owned a bunch of spas and he went down hard, even raided his house. Several spas didn't open back up. You can check the Tampa thread for more details.

Anyone know of any providers to set up a more normal schedule? Looking for either Kissimmee (margarittaville are) or really anywhere off of 429 highway. Not looking for travels into Orlando deeper than needed. UTR / Escort as long as its not breaking the bank LOL.

I had the same issue come up just last month. Was pissed off, bit the bullet, and went to Walmart and bought a new Tracfone https://www.walmart.com/ip/Tracfone-...one/400197400. My old phone was a piece of shit and now I'm kind of glad to have a new one. Same number and a relatively painless online switch / registration process.

Good Luck.

Both Metro and Cricket will let you get phones and service without showing an I'd. If they ask for one, tell them you don't have an I'd but you have cash money in your pocket. They'll "make an exception. " Make up a fake name and a fake address (that is real because it shows up in their records) and get their cheapest plan. Just pay cash at one of their retail locations each month.
