Am I HIV positive?

Since i was 8(the first time i remember this) , i have these white things on my tongue , that once go away and then come back , and they are changing their shapes from time to time.
I would be thankful if someone could answer!

Thank you!

We would have NO idea what is on your tongue, that's what the doctor is for.  The only thing we can tell you for sure is that it's not HIV related.

See your doctor if you are concerned, they have nothing to do with HIV.

In two days, when i'll be free im going to visit my doctor.
But really. If i brush them , they more or less disappear , tho , some stain still stays there. And they are changing. Do you know its reason?

I have always been using condoms, except with my current girlfriend. But sometimes we did use it(Actually most of the time.) We tried anal too 3 times , but we were careful , and did everything by the hygienic rules, and we dont have any other mates. never did/shared IV drugs!!

Teak: do you mean , have i been homeless or similar? (english is not my native language , but i try to do my best!)

Sounds to me like you're irrationally fearful of HIV, if you've googled lots of pictures and info about HIV.  UNLESS you've had unprotected vaginal or anal sex, OR shared IV drugs, or drug works, then you could not have HIV.

I have seen many texts , and pictures about HIV infected people on other sites - mostly collected on Google - , and i became scared because of them,that i may have it.
I have also read about other "infections" on the tongue that you just cant do anything with. Why are these on my tongue? Can it be over once, finally?

Why would you think that a symptom (if it even IS anything significant) that started at 8 years of age would have anything to do with HIV?  That's kind of a strange correlation to make?
