 Hi and thanks for posting. Your positive TPHA test indicates syphilis infection- with such a high titer, it' quite possible that you had recent or acute infection, though you can't use the test to tell if your primary, secondary or tertiary syphilis. Like other antibody tests, this will remain positive for your lifespan. There's nothing that you can do to make the test revert to negative. BY | ||||||||
