I suppose a time where you might catch something but it was totally curable would suffice.
And have the right tests. Is it the syph that can make you insane if you don't treat it, even though it seems like it's gotten better?
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Decongestants(both formulations) tend to make me jittery, and I can't take them after noon, or else I don't sleep well.

Also I believe your nose falls off. But I learned that from Candide, so, grain of salt.
I'm with Jesse - there's a reason 1969 was the summer of love. Birth control pills, antibiotics, pre-aids. Y Not?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
sara's my blue Sudafed girl.
Claritin-D, on the other hand, makes me unable to sleep. I assume it has more pseudoephedrine than OTC (or behind TC) Sudafed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Old Blue Sudafed is just Old Red Sudafed + Mucinex. You still need to show ID and give them your firstborn child as collatoral, but it is possible to have the decongestant without the dryness.
I just baked a chicken pot pie and filled the apartment with smoke. My smoke detector is now resting comfortably on a stool, safely disconnected from anything that might make it start screaming at me again. It's possible I should clean my oven this weekend.
Miraculously, DZ slept through the whole thing.

HPV. Which, being a virus, is not affected by antibiotics, although it's also symptomless in most people right up until you get cervical cancer. Also, there's no cure for herpes, and in 1969 the treatments (outbreak shorteners) were in the nada department.

I don't think herpes is really a big deal, and HPV isn't a big deal for most people who have it, either. And it's definitely not a big deal at first.
