HIV risk evaluation & duo test result prediction
Hello I am so terrified and worry when i traveled to Greece to visit my new friends I don't know them very we'll they insisted to invite me to stay with them so I spent about two weeks with them but I am afraid because I just found now that they are hiv positive and they did not start medication yet might be I exposed to HIV virus without my knowledge because when I returned to my country I started symptoms like flu two weeks post exposures please can you help me and measure and exposures also predict my duo test result which will be ready today , my possible exposures are first I used to clean the toilet with soap and water might be some liquid spread to my eyes while washing the toilet seat or the tub also I touched might be some liquids by hands , I ate many times with them they prepared and cooked the food also used their forks , sponses & cups if there is invisible infected blood on the food could it be high risk ? Especially I have many cuts in my mouth due to broken teeth and teeth problems , I slept in same beds I don't know if there is done infected secretion or not , no sex at all also no needles sharing I tested two months post the last exposure last Sunday at tdl London via lab here in my country and the result will be ready today so worry what you predict the result will be I felt that I lost everything if the result positive the test duo 28 I heard from dr hunter the virus could survive hours and may be weeks if the liquid wet and warm that is why ism so so anxious I am sure I exposed to unnoticed infected liquid because they are guy & girl and heterosexual having sex together all the time in the same place please advise me waiting for any help and support
I won't sure I don't know really about their dangerous risky activities & their HIV status unless when I returned home and I was shocked I appreciate the HIV positive persons and respect them but these guys don't care for their status and they continue having sex and injecting drugs that is why I was so so worry thank you my friend for your comment
I got it thanks god it is negative non reactive please I have last quest because I am worry about this incident happened today I saw wet blood on table today in restaurant without my notice I touched it but to ensure it was blood or not I rubbed it with tissue and it was fresh and wet then I smelled it it was near my nose I am not sure if it is blood might be something else but if it was HIV positive blood fresh and wet as dr hunter said the virus could survive in wet and warm blood for hours and weeks so is it risky behavior ? could the virus spread through my nose and infect me ? I think HIV virus can reach to blood stream via eyes and nose ? should I contact emergency and start medication it is less than 12 hours now? should I test again ? please answer my last question
Why it took long time in London if it positive the laboratory will repeat the test on the same sample to confirm the result right ? That is mean there is actually a problem with my test result I didn't engaged in sexual activities or drug needles sharing never ever just using public toilet , eating with positive person and restaurants , also travel
I did not get the test result yet that is why I am terrified I hope it negative it took long time in London tdl laboratory I tested for peace of mind ism so worry and anxious I will get married soon and in our country any positive person can not get married not allowed strictly prohibited also he will be out of job I pray for god to help me I don't know that they are hiv positive that is why I accepted their invitation no case documented from household or living with hiv positive persons if they don't engage in sexual activities or drug needles sharing
you had NO risk
hiv is not transmitted through environmental surfaces or inanimate objects. once exposed to air, it becomes inactive and unable to infect.
