molluscum contagiosum

[The Cute Pariah]

ive been diagnosed with molluscum contagiosum. im not sure how i got it. its either the horRID living conditions i was reduced to, or the conditions of the whoreRIDE. i never saw any molluscum contagiosum on her (and i knew her pretty well.)

now from what ive been told/read it does go away. but i wonder how this will effect my sex life. will i still be contagious.

has anyone here dealt with molluscum?

this site, http://www.emedicine.com/emerg/topic317.htm, states:

"Patient educators must stress that not all sexually transmitted diseases are as benign as molluscum contagiosum (eg, herpes simplex, gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV). Abstinence should be practiced until lesions resolve. In patients with multiple sexual partners and/or other risk factors, HIV testing is strongly recommended"

ill take that as a good thing.

I don't think so... I'm no expert on Molluscum, but i'm pretty sure once it goes away, you are not contagious.

A friend of mine had it in high school...
