Are these hiv symptoms???
Hi, Please excuse the long winded explanation but I thought I should add averthing for proper advice. I am a 36 year old male who engaged in unprotected vaginal sex along with giving unprotected oral and recieving unprotected oral on 2 occasions with the same woman, Shortly after the second encounter, Approximately 2 wks, I woke up one morning feeling very tired and could hardly hold my head up and that went on for a couple days in a row. Along with that I got this wierd kinda rash on the inside of my lower lip, wiggly white lines of skin like I had burned the inside of my mouth although they were not sore, just bumpy. Then approximately 6 weeks after that second encounter I had a 2 day flu with upset stomach and the runs but no vomiting. I also got a patch of folliculitus on my torso under my left breast that would not go away for like 6 weeks even with oral antibiotics and fungal cream given by my Dr! Soon after that appeared I got 2 boils on my back, 2 on my inner thigh and one near my right armpit. After all this I became traumatized! I started getting very anxcious and paranoid so I finally went to an STI clinic exactly 11 wks after last possible exposure and got tested for many things, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Hep B + C, and HIV, All came back negative. Since the first testing I have developed some terrible gastrointestinal problems, Stomach growling uncontrolably and intestines very unsettled with intense bloating and gas, Very loose stool with what looked like tissue and some diarhea, A couple times I had what looked like corn in my stool which I guess can be caused by not digesting food properly. I have had severe acne on my neck and face. I have severly dry skin all over, The skin on my legs and arms has the elephant skin look {All wrinkles up} when I turn my arm or leg to make my skin stretch. Being very very anxcious and stressed out I went and re-tested at 23 wks and all tests were negative again! What is this?? This all started appearing after those 2 encounters with that woman, What could possibly cause all these symptoms? Could this still possibly be HIV after a 23 week neg ELISA test??? All these symptoms are scaring the hell outta me!!! Can anyone enlighten me???
geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez...YOU'RE FALLING APART ! ! !
you were never at risk and your tests prove that. accept your status and work with your doctor to find out what is wrong with you...its NOT hiv related.
