Does my wife have an STD?!
Question: Does my wife have an STD?
My wife is constantly holding onto a medical bill from the OBGYN and it has three line items. I believe the bill was from her pap smear or something. It has the following items on it:
1. Something about chlamydia test or result $130
2. Something about gonorrhea test or "resistant" result $130
3. Another general line item about
Could these line items be because she HAS an std or are these just the standard things that a pap smear checks for??
After her pap smear, she told me something was irregular, but they told her to just come back in 6 months since she had recently had our child .... i'm worried, because i know i had ben unfaithful, but i feel like she is keeping this lab bill as a hidden sign of suspicion about me. let me know your thoughts.

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a technique to amplify small amounts of viral DNA to check for the presence of an STD. It's probably just a routine test the do with every patient as part of public health. Just ask her to be sure - especially if it's causing you lose trust in her.

It is a normal and routine PAP smear. Just ask her to clear your mind.
