Syphilis is one infectious condition that is not easily cured by some random antibiotics you took in past years for another condition. It will leave behind serum evidence of a past or current infection. Your multiple negative tests imply you were never infected then or now. There are many conditions with dark spots. I don't pair your description of the spots to syphilis.

This is one of at least three identical questions. Whatever you had back then, it wasn't syphilis. If it were, your FTA-ABS tests would be positive. You're obviously obsessed with this: please consider professional counseling.
