DEAR ABBY My very first "Dear Abby "letter is inspired
by ALLTORN UP. whose blood tests repeatedly came back
"positive" for syphilis when she knew it couldn’t be true.
The same thing happened to me 40 years ago.
I took a blood test to obtain a marriage license, and was
shocked beyond words when it came back positive! I went
from one doctor to another, and finally found one who knew
that it was possible to have a "false positive," which was
true in my case.
I’m glad you encouraged ALL TORN UP not to panic, but
to insist that her doctor investigate further
V IN L.A.
DEAR ABBY: I, too, show a false positive on a Wasser-
mann. Apparently this is not unusual, yet, in my experience,
physicians never consider this a possibility when a syphilis
test comes back positive.
As part of my physical when applying for a civil service
job, 1 was sent to the county VD clinic to wait in line with
assorted hookers. This was both humiliating and demean-
ing Now whenever I have a blood test, I let them know
up-front that I’m a false positive
CLEAN IN S.F.
DEAR ABBY Was I ever glad to see that letter in your
column from ALL TORN UP The same thing happened to
me - only I was married. (Try to explain that to your
husband!) My positive Wassermann turned out to be lupus
(It’s a disease in the same family as rheumatoid arthritis )
I here is a National Lupus Society with support branches all
over the U S They were enormously helpful
VICTIM IN BALTIMORE
DEAR ABBY Regarding ALL TORN UP It is absolutely
appalling how ignorant some doctors and others in the
health field are! There are countless reasons why a person
would have a false positive test for syphilis, and that poor
girl should have been set straight immediately Those who
have had malaria, TB, scarlet fever, infectious mono
nucleosis, lupus erythematosus (and many more diseases)
are apt to have false positives.
Please pass the word, Abby,
R M M . ROCK ISLAND. ILL
DEAR ABBY About the woman whose blood test came
hack positive and she swore there had to he a mistake:
Fifteen years ago my son, who was to be married in two
weeks, took a blood test and was informed that he had
syphilis!
His fiancee’s father gave me the news and told me what a
rotten son I had. He asked what they were going to do about
the $5,000 deposit they had paid the caterer, etc.
My son took more blood tests, and finally the N Y. State
Health Department advised us that some other factor in his
blood caused the "false positive " Woudn’t you think most
doctors would be familiar with this? Well, they weren't
F IN NYC
DEAR ABBY: What a wonderful service your column
provided when you ran that letter from the young woman
whose blood test indicated that she had syphilis when she
didn't
When I was 19, I had the same experience and nobody
believed me, so I was actually treated for syphilis' The
humiliation I was subjected to was unbelievable. (Lucky for
that doctor malpractice suits weren’t in vogue then.)
Thanks, Abby, your letter made my day.
