Okay, Symtoms are real, not in head, if you can't get HIV through Hand Job than What can you get ?

guys,  you  have  been noticing that I do not spend much time on board, but enjoy my life, but yet,  I have symptoms left  and right.  

I still  have fatigue, muscle weakness, eye pain, pressure in the head, hard time to breath, lymph pain over the body, ear aches, pain, and echo problem.

All i had was a hand job, then why am I suffering so much ? I do not think it is anxity,.

Remember I had ARS type 2 weeks after exposure.

If this is not HIV, than what can it be ?

Yes, call me sick and stupid, but my symptoms are real. I am seeing my doc on Friday, to get MRI and other stuff to do to rule out any other stuff.

Yes, I want to  get tested, but I can't do it with my insurance, what is the best method ?

Q: If I have to go on meds, will insurance still pay for it or will they cancel it ?

Q: I have constant mouth sore, cankor sores, cuts, fatigue, itching , body aches, oh men, these aches are so bad , that they are over my body, its like I got sick 2 weeks from exposure and I have never go over it.

I talk to my doc, and he said, if you do it with insurance, they will keep a eye on it.

He also said,that when you are first infected with HIV, you feel like a bad flue, that last for ever.

In his office, there is another doc who is HIV Specalist, so he says, when they have ARS, they are pretty sick, and pretty bad fever.

And thats what I had, I had a fever, at 14 days and after that, I feel like I could never get over the flu, I still have muslce aches, and pain and all the other symptoms.

My Religion is from a Asian Culture,, and they look bad as having HIV.

Seriously....are you not going to test?  I sure yyou will be much more respected in your religion for being such a pansy.  I am concerned for you because you are obviously freaking out.  Simply get a test and put this to rest. (that rhymed).  As far the shark tank Jaguar mentioned....if you continue to stress like this, it might not be a bad idea.

At least you're not as crazy as the guy who thought he got HIV when his exposure was fingering a chick with a condom on (Yes, a condom on his finger)?

Please, if you are so convinced you already have HIV, go to the doctor and at least get it confirmed, even though you will be surprised with the result.

That was funny man.  Really laughed out loud on that one.

Goloka, you are one crazy mofo.  If you are indeed religious, then I can see how this would affect you.  Religion plays an interesting part in HIV paranoia.  But, part of me thinks you are simply trolling with some expertise.  So, good job.  It's definitely good for a laugh.

>Guys, you  are correct, why am I a little *****, well I am from a strict relgion, and If they >find out, I am done

Ahhh, so, things start to make a bit more sense, now, to me at least. Would it be true to say that the root of your fear is that those who are also in your strict religion would look down upon someone who received a hand job in a massage parlor? Also, can you explain a bit more about your religion, and also how you yourself feel about having gotten a hand job in a massage parlor.

Personally, I don't think you're anything more or less than someone who finds themselves in a moral dilemma. You have crossed some internal or external moral boundary, and now feel the need to continuously punish yourself with thoughts of HIV. My guess is that, yes, your "symptoms" are indeed solely the product of your fevered guilt complex. Of course, that is just a guess.

Another question, are you afraid to discuss all of this with your doctor? If so, why?
