I hope you are doing well now! Neurosyphilis can happen at any stage, but is more common at the late latent. People living with HIV are also more likely to get neurosyphilis.

For me I had no symptoms of syphilis until my ears started ringing, and had vision problems (spots in my right eye).  I tested negative in Jan 2017 during my routine 90 day tests.  By April I had neurosyphilis,  guessing I skipped some stages.  I had dizzy spells, memory/concentration problems, ears ringing, eye problems, headache and fever.  Rashes didn’t appear until I started treatment  (2 shots, pills AND 2 weeks taking antibiotics on an IV). 

Same exact symptoms here, Tinnitus followed by loss of vision in the right eye, 14 days of 24hr penicillin through a pic line in my arm and a curlin pump. Not too pleasant. Initial Titer was 1:128, 3 months after treatment titer had reduced to 1:16.
