OH my god I have been told repeatedly that i have no risk im still really scared i missed something i have a 8 weeks test tommorrow and im so scared its gonna come back positive or at least a false positive. Im having some really crazy thoughts about myself right now. I just wanna be ok i dont wanna die from this kiss of death
. Some people say i have to be bleeding profusely others say it doesnt have to be profusely just fresh.I just wish i could remember if the other person was bleeding to.I need medication and fast but i cant do that right now. Thank god the test is at least free. tested at 35 days negative i wish i could get it in my head
...I see lots of people have this problem believing that they dont got it never understood that before but im understanding it now. Mike_no and quite a few others have been really helpful with there reassurance i want to believe it i want it to sink in hell i wanna be normal again. I hope that if it is negative tommorrow that i can be good with that but i think its gonna take me the 3 months and thats not till June 1st. Is it true that a 8 week negative will not change???? What is the chances of recieving a false positive?????
false positives occur,rarely, however they are followed up by a western blot.
your exposure was kissing? and 35 days negative. yeah your 8 wks wil be negative. you didnt even need a test, but since anxiety is pretty powerful, go for it and collect your negative results.
cuz i pulled a piece of skin off my lip ,put my hand to it and it had a small amount of blood on it then prob around 10 minutes later is when the deep kiss happend but i just dont know if there was blood in her mouth or not i also didnt know her hiv status i cant get ahold of her now.She recently had one of those gastric bypasses prob about june of last year dont think they would give one to someone who had hiv but i hope she wasnt infected anytime in the last 8-9 months. My lip wasnt bleeding alot.Would I of had to of been bleeding majorly with a bigger wound for this to happen?? if she was infact bleeding and positive. This lady is a heterosexual women with an occasional bisexual encounters. I believe she gets around the block. See the reason i took the test in the first place was not originally for the kiss it was for unprotected sex about 3 years ago. I seen this sight and i seen about kissing with blood and it got me really really scared again and noticed that my kiss only happend 35 days before the test.
also what are the chances that a 8 week negative will turn positive at 3 months in case of a risk exposure? Is the 3 month period because of certain people with bad immune systems and if so what are these bad immune systems caused by?
so the chance of my having hiv is somewhere around the percent of 99% considering that i was bleeding on my lip and that the other person was bleeding in there mouth...I hope to god that is was not enough blood to infect me
The oraquick advance Oral fluid false positives are very rare right just wanted to make sure its rare on those too. Im sorry for so many questions i just am alone and i have no one to talk to just recently moved to a Omaha from a small town.
You can relax. There has never been anyone infected by kissing, closed mouth or French kissing, with blood or without. French kissing involves saliva and saliva is not infectious. Saliva has inhibiting factors to HIV. Even if the other person had had copious amounts of blood in their mouth you wouldn't have had a risk.
I see that ur pretty straight forward with people and im just looking for some more information on my exposure.Involved deep kissing for about 5 minutes. I had a cut on my lip that bled a little before the kiss.I'm not sure if it was still bleeding, it was a small cut cuz i pulled a piece of skin off my lip ,put my hand to it and it had a small amount of blood on it then prob around 10 minutes later is when the deep french kiss happend but i just dont know if there was blood in her mouth or not i also didnt know her hiv status i cant get ahold of her now.My lip wasnt bleeding alot to my knowledge.Would I of had to of been bleeding profusely majorly with a bigger wound for this to happen?? if she was infact bleeding and positive. This lady is a heterosexual women with an occasional bisexual encounters. I believe she gets around the block. tested 35 days after the French kiss happend
Thank you so much for that....I do just have a few more questions if you wouldn't mind sharing your knowledge a little more.....You say no amount of blood would matter correct in either persons mouth?? Thats even with me having had a cut that was bleeding just a very short time before it happend and not knowing if it was still bleeding during assuming it was tho...I find it amazing and very interesting that saliva kills the virus in the blood even if there were large amounts am I understanding you correctly???Sorry for repeating alot of this its just that I hear so many different things about the amounts of blood....barn babe sent me this.... likeWords of dr. HHH:
"At least half the population has bleeding from the gums from time to time, and at any particular moment several percent probably have gum disease with minor or overt bleeding. Therefore, the statistics on low transmission by oral sex or kissing have already taken bleeding into account, and still the risk is zero. That is, if blood in the mouth was a risk during oral sex or kissing, there would HAVE to be more cases transmitted by that route than have been observed.
In theory, of course the presence of blood raises the risk somewhat. But doubling or even a ten-fold increase in transmission risk is still zilch (ten times nothing equals nothing). So the bottom line is that there are no statistics to tell you exactly how much the risk might increase in the presence of blood; or how much blood would have to be present to raise the risk to a level that matters. No matter what, it is too low a risk to worry about." this for example....also got Unless she had an huge bleeding wound in her mouth, no chance. HIV is not your problem...or that it would have to be a fresh cut bleeding profusly...also have heard that if both partys we just activley bleeding then that could transmit.....Im not doubting you in fact yours was the best I heard so far...I just wanna be sure you know worrying has taken me to some places that i dont wanna be at....what do u think about all these comments...i just was wandering how u feel about them i dont doubt u and if fact you have probably made it better for me to sleep tonight considering that i have that appointment tommorrow for the 8 week test....also have heard things about no one which has a 8 week negative will test positive havent for 5 years now with modern testing. The one i will be taking tommorrow is the OraQuick Advance oral fluid results in 20 minutes....thats just a good as a blood test correct??? Well thanks for listening to my raving i apprieciate it so so much....if you could get back to me with your comments on these things that would be wonderful.
OraSure Advance is an antibody test for HIV 1/2 it's a very good rapid test. If you read the leaflet for OraSure Advance; http://www.orasure.com/uploaded/398.pdf go to page 8 Limitations and read number 8. Just so you understand. In 25 years there are NO documented cases of HIV from kissing and that is closed mouth or French kissing.
Thanks for the test info....Im sorry i was not hiv educated so to speak....I now know more than i ever hoped that i would need to know. I know u understand my concerns tho since i had that cut in my lip that was bleeding right before or even during that kiss and not knowing if the other person was bleeding or not also not knowing what amount of blood would make a difference in the event we were both bleeding....I now can go to that test(all ready arranged) tommorrow knowing that there is no reason for it to be postive since I didnt have a risk in the first place i really thought the amount of blood coming from her mouth into mine which might have been bleeding would make a difference even with saliva....all this she would have to have a huge bleeding wound or you would of have to of been bleeding profusly scared the **** outta me.Thanks for letting me know that even tho i had a bleeding cut or likely one anyways, and she was bleeding that it was still no risk involved no matter how much blood was involved from either person...Its funny cuz yours is the one which has made me feel the safest and i have read how to the point and blunt you are which is a good thing :) especially helped me out of a frenzy for tommorrow and now after tommorrow i can let this go or even now.I dont have to wait till 3 months im sorry im so repetative im just so happy now:) :) Now i will be able to sleep and sleep well knowing im totally ok.Thank you so so so so very much.
