| Response from Dr. Holodniy
 In many people who have been diagnosed with syphilis and treated some time in the past, the RPR test will remain positive forever, even though the infection was treated successfully. Although you don't indicate what the RPR titer was when you were diagnosed, an RPR titer of 1:1 usually means inactive or treated infection. | ||||||||
