It was just his semen on the little wound, about 1 cm long...
Thanks, it's great to here that...
I men't hear, not here. Sorry.
Is that situation even for testing?
I don't think you even need testing.
So you fly an Air Bus, nice plane. Flew in my first one the other day! As for your risk, you aren't at risk.
I just read this:
http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/323289. He says that even slightly bleeding wounds are risk...???
If it was actively bleeding..(blood coming out) while the exposore occured then theoretically possible. The biggest advice to you would be to simply test. Your test now would basically be conclusive. It sounds to me like you will continue to worry and doubt without one. IF your concerned about your profession fnding out, there are annoumous (sp?) clinics out there. I wish I was at 11/12 weeks so I could test and find out one way or antoher. I need to put my mind at ease. Good luck to you. The odds are near zero if not actually zero in your situation. Expect a negative.
Well, it wasn't bleeding severely, more like when you pop a pimple...
No expert....but from numerous threads I've read you would be one of the first people in the world to contact it this way. Theoretically its possible I suppose but from what the Doctor has said, there have been no reported cases this way in almost 30 years of the disease. Go get a quick test so you can move on, but you are fine.
Great, thanks. btw, i noticed Teak is an expert here, so, Teak, can you answer?
Teak, could you please answer is today (11 weeks) conclusive enough?
And was this a risk?
I will, but this week until I test is really stressfull for me...
But, just to clarify, would you even recommend testing for this?
there was no real risk from this incident! you will be negative when you test.
btw, What makes this a no risk? Tha fact that wound was very small, or because it didn't bleed severely?
Thanks...
I asked him today is he HIV positive and he said no. I guess nobody lies about that...
