If you think you have syphilis you better ignore all the advice about oral antibotics here and see a specialist. Khema clinic in Tuol Kork has dr Phe Tong, he is specialized in STD / Infectious diseases and a consult will cost you 10-15 USD. They also have a lab there. If there's any doubt they can send a blood sample to Bangkok for cross checking, titer checking, or checking spine fluid to rue out cerebral syphilis.

While syphilis is curable the damage done before treatment is permanent, so better not wait too long if you think you have it.

<edit>
Syphilis is not the kind of disease you can self medicate, because the treatment is different at different stages of the disease. Determining the stage requires a skilled doc. Not forum members.

I think I'll just get Cefixime and plus the Azithromycin too from the pharmacy and start with them so I don't ever have to visit this thread again...
Maybe you should just go a fucking doctor instead of playing antibiotic roulette.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
