Sorry about the cut, i realize you are trying to help in your own way. I am waiting for test results and have become rather salty. I truly hope 6 weeks is good enough because if it is I am way on the clear. Say a prayer for me i am anxious to leave this stress behind. I can tackle whatever comes if i just know what I am dealing with.

at this point i'm hoping that I was simply overtraining at the gym and with the steroids and when I got off of them my body just went into shut down mode as I am a lot weaker now and feeling like i'm losing a lot of my muscle

also, red spots on the skin either by the arm pit, on the bicep, or top of hands- not a lot of red spots but they sprout up here and there and then disappear

also, I just had the following tests on Wed 11-8 :  urinalysis, CBC, TSH Ultra Sensitive,  comp metabolic, culture stool, and ova & parasites.

I should be getting my results back tomorrow

Lately my symptoms are diahrrea for at least a month maybe longer, a funny taste in my mouth all the time, and very nervous

Why didnt you wait one week for a conclusive test? Ask your doctor, dont listen to someone who writes the word, naw.

my exposure was unprotected receptive anal.  negative at 11 weeks and 4 days (ELISA). Do I need another test at 6 months???  I know this is the encounter with the most risk.

steroids are an iv drug right?

I was on them at the time of my exposure, could this prolong antibodies?
