Patient's question:
I just carefully checked and found that my TRUST antibody is negative, but my TPPA is positive. The doctor said I had it before and was treated for it, but I was completely unaware. Hello, is my current condition treatable? How long will it take approximately?Doctor's answer:
A positive result for Treponemal Pallidum Antibody (TPPA) indicates a lifelong infection that cannot turn negative. Advice: However, a positive Treponemal Pallidum Antibody (TPPA) result is not contagious and does not require treatment, so you don't need to worry. The doctor is correct.The above advice is for the question "I just got a TRUST negative and Treponemal Pallidum Antibody (TPPA) positive result." I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
