thats also exactly what i have since my sexual exposure including many neuropathic like pains headaches stiff neck crawling skin numb lips frequent yeast infections acne breaking out on face, change in skin colour etc. thats most probably only about 1/5 of my symptoms a nd theres many more just after the sexual encounter my condom splits? coincidence isnt it, my doctor wont help nomore i dont know what to do. maybe it was a false negative?
"Is the test 100% reliable at 12 weeks?"
Yes, you are now considered conclusively negative. You do not have HIV.
It is time for you to move on from this forum. There is nothing more that anyone can do for you here.
ok so my 12 or 13 week came back negative but i'm experiencing a whole range of symptoms and generally feeling like i am dieng. i've had bloods done, sti's and urine and nothings shown up. My lips even feel numb and i;m very young so i doubt it would be anything else and would of shown up. Is the test 100% reliable at 12 weeks?
Your "symptoms" sound 100% stress/anxiety induced. You need to get your anxiety under control. When you get your results bext week....finally put this behind you.
In the meantime...seek some help for your anxiety. You are really most likely worrying about NOTHING!
See your doctor. HIV rashes don't itch.
I feel like i'm dieng :( my lips are swelling up im breakin out in itchy rashes i feel like my bodys about to explode. i've went for another test but it wont be until next week monday i can go in and view my results
There is nothing more we can tell you....you are convinced you have HIV despite our reassurances that you likely do NOT. I would recommend going to a clinic and getting a test, as you are past the 3 month mark, which would make your test conclusive....and hopefully you can finally put this behind you.
NOTHING you have described is even remotely consistent with HIV symptoms. You need to stop smoking weed for many reasons....mainly b/c it overall increases anxiety and depression, not to mention paranoia...and you aren't thinking rationally as it is right now.
If you get another test and STILL cannot accept your NEG results, then it is time to get some professional help. There is nothing more we can do for you on this forum.
Nothing to do with HIV, it came on to late to be HIV related.
it must be due to hiv or something. i NEVER had these before so why would they be there all sudden now i'm not myself?
Has nothing to do with HIV.
plus would i get rash 3 monthsexposue or just one primary rash
so why the hell doesn't my doctor know it's as if they've left me in a hole since my 9 week test being negative. im experiencing so much symptoms right now i feel as my whole body is dieng more everyday i'm only 18 so it cannot be anything else
No..HIV doesn't do that at all.
but thats what concerns me ive been smoking for so long so i know how i usually feel then all a sudden i have this incident and i cant even smoke weed no more because it makes me feel as if im about to pass out and as if my neck is closing in tight can hiv do this to my body so quick?
Then I suggest you quit smoking weed.
its mainly when i smoke weed aswell i feel like no control over my body, pains allover yet ive smoked for years now it isnt the same!!!!! i can feel something not right within me. despite my negs can it be hiv not showing up for 2 months on me and this girl????????
ive just broke out in a blotchy rash on the chest this is now 3months + from the exposure apart from the tiny little pink pin pricks which come come on forearms and chest i've seen for quite a while now which also come and go
Re-read the answers you've been given.....I personally always recommend a person having a 3 month test for a conclusive result. A 9 week negative is basically NOT going to change...but there HAVE been people who have tested POS later than that, albeit extremely rare.
Personally, I would say you are fine...and if you are comfortable with the 9 week pos, then that's great. If you would rather take the conservative stance and have a repeat test at 3 months, just go to a local clinic, since the doctor doesn't want to recommend further testing.
Also, I wanted to clear something up too...the fact that you had your partner tested is VERY reassuring...but for the sake of information in this forum...even that isn't a guaruntee if a person is still within their own window period and hasn't tested POS yet. They would still be able to transmit the virus.
All the evidence in your case is very reassuring that you have nothing to worry about.
just a follow up, my doctors saying she won't do no more tests as the hiv specialist recons hes 100% sure i don't have it and forwarded me to pshyciatrist. can i rely on what hes saying if not what should i do ?

When one of the manufactures comes out with a test that will give a conclusive negative test earlier than what their test approval states is when we will change the conclusive time line. At this time there is NO MARKETED tests that are FDA approved to give a conclusive negative result earlier than 3 months and the ONLY official guidelines are based on the MANUFACTURE and the FDA.
It is IMPOSSIBLE that you have HIV. Your partner was negative, you can't get it if your partner didn't have it, and your negative test results are completely reliable. Your risk was so low to start with, you never really needed a test in the first place except to relieve your anxiety. Please see my journal, "HIV Risk in Perspective"

The evidence that you are negative is OVERWHELMING. I would bet both of my kidneys that you do not have HIV given the facts of your case.
I really think that you would get your money's worth if you posted to the doctors in the Expert Forum- they have the experience that you are seeking and will undoubtedly assure you that you are okay.
What is worrying going to do? You can't fix what you broke and worry won't do a bit of good.
