fever blisters on lip... symptom?

[virginhoe]

I know I carry the herpes 1 virus but I noticed I have three little fever blisters on my lip. Are these a symbol of HIV? Or symptom? Still, I've never done drugs or anal/vaginal intercourse but I'm worried, I've been with many guys!

Anyone? Fever blisters= symptom?

You've never had an exposure. You don't have HIV. If you want to discuss HSV you need to take it to the proper forum.

So these don't mean I have HIV? I'm fine?

They are signs that you have HSV1. You don't have an HIV concern.

I know but what if I somehow have it? Are my fever blisters a symptom? I am in school and have been stressed and the other day I kissed a guy I think had a blister... could this by why? I am just so worried :(

Of course not HIV is transmitted through UNPROTECTED vaginal/anal sex. Even ORAL is very LOW risk that Doctors report it almost as ZERO risk. But in your case, if you do engage in an intercourse, make it safe because the HERPES are liable to raise therisk of having HIV.

But kissing and touching is 100% SAFE as saliva kills the virus.

No need to worry,

You are HIV FREE

Symptoms mean nothng, the only way to knw for sure abt your HIV status is to get tested and frm wht you said, you never put yourself at risk so you don't need to get tested, but it leads me to ask the question, been with many guys how?!
From wht you said, it isn't no way, NO how.
Your symptoms are totally unrelated.
Smile. Stop worrying.
Always use a Condom, whn you do intend to start.
