I have a ? I had protected anal sex with another guy ... Both of us stopped and played with ourselves to completion... About a month later my lymph nodes in my groin be an to hurt for about 3-4 days then went away.. Then I felt stinging in my penis.. Then after a few days that went away... About a week later my lymph nodes in my neck began to swell.. Then they went down.. And about a week later they are starting to swell again.. I am very freaked out.. I call the guy he said he doesn't have anything.. He told me he has had kidney stones before and that could be it... Or a uti... What do y'all think ... Hiv?? Thank you
OK, if you REALLY can't recall if your sex was protected or not...then you need to be tested, it's that simple. You also need to be tested for other STD's as well...the burning symptoms you had could indicate another STD.
Secondly, NO ONE, not even a doctor can diagnose swollen lymph nodes via a picture over the internet. If you think they are swollen, see your doctor. You cannot self diagnose swollen lymph nodes. It's something only a trained medical professional can do.
Take an HIV test so you can put this behind you.
Also probably not smart to get so intoxicated where you have no memory of events...that's very dangerous in many ways.
Only a Dr can tell you if they are swollen, we can't by looking at pictures.
I have a few more pics, if its not easy to tell. I just want to know if they are swollen or not. Thanks.
Hey guys.... I think I have swollen lymph nodes. I posted a few pics on my profile. Its pictures of my neck. Any opinions?
As Teak said, if i remembered whether i had sex or not, i would'nt bother all of you guys but I don't, I mean I don't think I did. I just hope if I did it was extremely brief. with minimal chance of bodily fluid exchange. When I woke up in the morning there was an unused condom next to the bed, and my reasoning is, if the CSW brought it, she would have used it to protect herself as well because why would she have brought one. Oh...
Symptoms if they do happen come at 2-4 weeks and you don't get just a rash.
Hey guys,
will get tested in 10 days when I am back in the U.S. I know you guys said disregard any symptoms but now I am having a rash, occurring on my torso, shoulders and back. They are pinkish, reddish, does not itch, and seam to be increasing in numbers every day. Is it possible to get symptoms of HIV after a this time since exposure? 4 weeks and 5 days. Thanks. I have had no fever, and my lymph nodes are not swollen.
thanks guys. not trying to be annoying but i do appreciate your answers.
1. Stop with the multiple post
2. If you were so drunk not to remember if you used a condom then you were to drunk to maintain an erection.
they are 1 in 2000 if the CSW had HIV.
I will get tested, but I have to wait till the end of Dec as I cannot leave Dubai till then. That being said "If I did have unprotected sex", if i did... My odds of catching HIV are pretty strong and high aren't they?
between 2-4 weeks. However I cant stress this enough-disregard any symptoms you are having, they mean nothing. From your perspective the only thing that matters is whether you are 100% confident you did not have penetrative sex. If you didnt you are 100% safe from contracting HIV. If you did you need to test.
Thank you. But when do symptoms of early HIV infection usually appear in most cases?
clarification:line two should read unprotected penatrative sex.
Hi. If you only had oral sex then you have no risk of HIV transmission. However if you think there is a risk of you having had unprotected sex then you should get tested.
Disregard any symptoms you may be experiencing. HIV cannot be diagnosed by symptoms and there are many potential causes for these types of symptoms. The only thing that can conclusively confirm you dont have HIV is a test 3 months after exposure.
