How can I thank you? I feel very relaxed seeing your response. I am trying to forget the episode. I have no close friend whom I can share my feelings. In India family dictates everything and they are forcing me to marry within next 2 months. This is making me mad on top of HIV risk.
Wrong. You don't tell people to test an cause undo anxiety. He never had a risk and doesn't need testing.
If you are nervous about HIV it is worhty to take the test and relax. Test than be sorry!
If you don't test yourself your tense and nervous feeling will cause you so much problem and you will end up spending too much on doctors in the future. All your symtoms such as diarrhea, joint pain, feaver and .. comes from your fear and nervousness.
I have 23 days PCR DNA HIV-1 test negative also 54 days ELISA sandwich test (I believe 3rd generation ) negative. But yesterday, I started stomach pain and loose motions at 64 day. I am very tensed. I can not stop thinking about hiv. Is diarrhea a symptom for HIV? I had some fever 100 deg for 6 hours and went down to 99 99.5 after sometime.
How can I check whether I have swollen lymphnodes in my waist join? I feel slight pain in there. It is causing worry. I do not know whether they are swollen or not. But when I press them then I feel pain. The armpit nodes becomes painful when I am stressed and remains for 4 days.
I am worried can I still be positive?
What have you been told about your risk?
Hi,
I got my DNA PCR Test results. They came out negative after 22 day post exposure.
Should I go for more tests or this should be fine? Teak you mentioned that I do not need test.
How are you people so sure? I am still nervous.
Doctor says it is only 99.99% sure and you should test after 3 months again.
Your symptoms aint HIV related. Whether youre circumsized or not, have symptoms or not, take tests or not - still the answer will be YOu had NO risk to HIV.
Hi Teak,
I am getting some swelling in my neck. I have some dry cough. Are these symptoms of HIV? I am getting married soon. I made this mistake but I am unable to live with it. I want to get checked as there is a possibility of infection. I am uncircumcised and I was reading online that virus can infect these people easily.
You didn't need a test, you never had a risk. Duo tests ARE NOT definitive at 28 days. There are no tests conclusive till 3 months post exposure. Again you don't need testing.
I went for DNA RNA HIV Test. Results will be coming in 2 days. I am very nervous. I read all the false positive incidents on the web. Some says this is not a reliable test. My doctor says it is 99.99% accurate test but I need to go to ELSIA for 100% accuracy after 3 months.
If my test comes negative. Should I move on with life or should I wait for ELISA test? Dr you mentioned that your DUO test at 28 days are definitive. Why my doctor in India not saying that?
You never had a risk of contracting HIV.
I am uncircumcised. Do this mean that condom slipped to half is a risk?
It is a great relief. I am reading online material from last 2 days. Should I go for HIV and STD test?
1-no
2- no
3- no
nothing to worry..you have no concerns regarding hiv..
