Symptoms, What Could It Be?
by hometownboy98, Oct 12, 2009 10:44AM
Okay, I posted on here a couple days ago about chest pains and heartburn, they got so bad I went to the Emergency Room and I was diagnosed with GERD. Now I have found yet another something that bothers me.
I have a mouth ulcer (since beginning of week) and white spots on my tongue.... This worried me, could it be from GERD? I went to looking up my symptoms on the internet and I noticed that Mouth Ulcers, White Spots On Tongue, and an Unexplained Fever (which I had at the emergency room) are symptoms for HIV and to fuel my worry, I noticed that it also said red or brown spots under the skin, I have had them since last year, the doctor didn't seem to be concerned with the spots.
I am celebate and have not been in contact with blood or drugs, etc. that I know of.... What could this be? Can you get HIV from touching doorknobs then using the bathroom?

If you have not had a blood transfusion, and are celebate, I would say the chance of having HIV is next to zero. You may, however, have what is called Candida, this is a yeast infection that has some of the symptoms you mentioned. Ask the doctor of a stool test to rule this out.
