my wife and I share Herpes 2, will this be a problem?

[stevelo777 0]

My wife's medical is soon, and i am not sure if the fact we share herpes 2 will be an issue. Is this something of concern? Should i send something to show there doctors that i carry it also? Or is this not a big deal?

thanks,

Steve

If you are asking if it is a concern for immigration purposes, I don't think so. Here is info on the medical issues and inadmissibilities: http://www.lexisnexis.com/practiceareas/im...pdfs/web475.pdf

St. Lukes doesn't check for herpes 2. It's not an issue to worry about!

It will not be a problem.

Hey! At the medical examination, they will ask you do you carry any STD's. so you have to answer to that question honestly. Does anyone know from experience that having an herpes won't cause your denial?

Charles apparently studied about STDs the same place he studied humor and politics. That's why most of his posts about the election were a ###### joke.

But, I digress.

It's a virus, stupid.

also known as shingles, chicken pox, cold sores, and 400 other names/strains. no know cures, but the label on the lysol spray says it "kills the virus on contact" so why isn't lysol making pills?

Won't affect the visa - best to admit it, and if your on the prescription "blockers" all the better.

Symbiosis, this is a ridiculous and unnecessary post. Shows some insecurity on your behalf. If you don't find the posts funny, then don't read them. By the way, here is the definition of irony in case you are unfamiliar, "the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning".

hhhmmm...what about hepatitis B? will that affect the immigration...i think it might be unreactive or something like that...???

The following communicable diseases render a person inadmissible:

1. chancroid

2. gonorrhea

3. granuloma inguinale

4. acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS)

5. Hansen’’s disease (infectious leprosy)

6. lymphogranuloma venereum

7. infectious state syphilis

8. infectious tuberculosis (TB) (clinically active)

I disagree.

Charles' post was the unnecessary one in my opinion. Trying very hard to be funny and have SOMETHING to say in about every post sometimes gets a little tiresome.

Especially if somebody askes for advice about a health issue and is worried about this - no need to make fun of them, IMO.

But hey - maybe it's me, I'm German and have no sense of humor after all!
