Even though my RPR is 1:8 and showing still positive, will I be safe to get my surgery since I’ve been treated?

Asked By:Lina Dobrev in Kansas City, Missouri

Ex cheated on me. Found out I had syphilis. Starting titer was 1:34. 6 months later RPR is now 1:8. I planned on getting liposuction and bbl at the end of next month. Even though my RPR is 1:8 and showing still positive, will I be safe to get my surgery since I’ve been treated ? My dr said it should be fine and she would clear me for surgery but to hear it from another doctor would really put my mind at ease as I really would like this surgery!
