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.

He's beyond the help that anyone on this forum can help him with. If he won't go seek the help that he needs there and there is nothing that anyone can do here.

Ok, I'll go along with the gag, Goloka. I now believe that you have HIV. Somehow, you are the only person in the world, since the emergence of the HIV virus, to have acquired it from a simple HJ. While every doctor and specialist in this area in the world will tell you that it is impossible, you know better. And, finally, I will say I agree with you.

All of your "symptoms" sound like the effects of a perturbed emotional state to me, but, what do I know? You know best: you have HIV. Even though you refuse to just go get a test, and instead prefer to spend all of your time endlessly reciting your various complaints and then accusing those who disagree with your self-diagnosis of ignorance or insensitivity, OK, I will agree with you.

So, given that you know that you have HIV, what are you doing about it? Have you spoken to your doctor about getting on meds, getting a viral load test, establishing drug resistance of your particular strain of HIV, etc.? If not, and since you so firmly believe that you were infected (in contravention of all known laws of physics, no less), why haven't you done this? I see you are going to the doctor because your *** itches (dry skin, maybe - of course not, HIV!), so you obviously have a doctor. Instead of hounding this forum for answers that no one can give you and that you will not listen to anyway, why aren't you on the phone with your doctor setting up a treatment plan for your (imaginary) HIV infection? Seriously, why not?

I doubt you even read the replies, but, just in case, in your next post, please address your treatment plan with all of us so that the next person who wanders in here with an (imaginary) HIV infection has some idea of what to do and expect.

Hey, I have tried everything, to realx and all, but i just can't the symptoms wont let me relax. I called my doc yesterday about itching around the thigh and butt area got so bad,  he may think it may be Candidiasis, and that I am going to go see him tomorrow.

I read Candidiasis is caused by HIV.

See , what no one is seem to answer me is, why am I suffereing from so many symptoms ? That no one should from a small episode ?

This has taken a big toll on my life, I have mood swings, I can't seem to function or have fun anymore.

I am not much worried about HIV, but the symptoms I am.

I can't seem to live with these symptoms, they hurt and it takes a big emotional toll on me.

I am not the person, who keeps wanting precaution in life, I take risk, but pain I can't

I can take risk, but the pain that comes with it, I can't.

On this board , no one has ever had any problems as I do.Many of you say oh its in your freaking head, but really, you think ?

Why, do I twitch when I wake up, my body is fatigue after having 8 hours of sleep. Body itches, butt itches, thigh itches, comes and go.

Sharp pain in finger, and below foot.

Sharp pain in the back, ear pain, stiff neck.

Why now ? Why after my hand job ? why not before ?

Do you see where I am getting at now ???

Is it all in the head, no. Sure stress can cause some problem, but not low immune system symptoms.

I must say your timing is impeccable. Though you don't chime in very often, when you do it's always a good read.
I couldn't help but visualize with a slight gigggle this part of your post...
"Put down the thermometer, set aside the 2000 page medical manual detailing the inner workings of the liver you are leafing through, and step outside and just look up..."
We've all been there to some degree, but it helps when we put things in the proper.perspective.

You are the first person who is going to die from HIV anxiety. You sound like a complete wreck. I am sure you are very pleasant to live and work around. Do you know that people who *really* do have terrible diseases and illnesses don't carry on like you do? I've been around those with terminal diseases who have a better mental outlook than you.

I can only imagine what you must be like to interact with on a regular basis. Are you this afraid of other, equally unlikely events or catastrophes befalling you? For instance, how is it possible that you leave the house every day? I hate to do this to you, but, then again, you sound like the type of person who would want to know about stuff like this, just to take precautionary measures, so, imagine this:

Somewhere, some 22,000 miles above this big blue marble we call Earth, is a satellite in geosynchronous orbit above wherever it is you happen to live. Said satellite has been up there for, oh, let's say a few years. It's been buffeted by cosmic winds and dinged up by little pebbles cast off of ancient meteorites passing in its vicinity. Did you know, my friend, that pieces fall off of such satellites all the time? And, if they are big enough, their orbit slowly but surely degrades to the point that said pieces re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and, uh oh, they don't break up.

Do me a favor, go outside now and look up at the sky. Put down the thermometer, set aside the 2000 page medical manual detailing the inner workings of the liver you are leafing through, and step outside and just look up. Because, I have something to tell you. Looking up yet? Good. Do you see it up there? That satellite we were talking about? Yep, that one right there, sort of looks like a star, but it isn't, is it? Nope. Want to know what it really is? You sure? Ok, I will tell you: it is the instrument of your doom!

That's right. All this time you have been worried about something that is really, really impossible to occur: getting HIV through a handjob. Stupid you. What you should really be focusing on is something that is only slightly less impossible: a solar panel becoming detached from the satellite, falling down to Earth and striking you on the head as you sit in your back yard fretting about HIV and feeling up your lymph nodes for the bazillionth time. Bingo, you're a pancake, flattened by a steaming hunk of metal that just, against all odds, fell to Earth and did you in.

My advice: forget about HIV. Start worrying about space debris. And, don't even get me started on the ant colony in your yard that has achieved advanced intelligence and is planning on carrying you away in the dead of night and eating you, one pincer full at a time. You think your liver hurts now, just wait until that happens. You'll look back on this and laugh.

Ok, good luck with all that, and think about wearing a helmet. Just in case.
