.. Now I have had fillings put in recently about 2-3 months ago and my last encounter was 2 weeks ago. I feel extremely guilty and I have one tooth which needs to be removed as it has a dental cavity which is too bug to be filled... In all instances the act never lasted for more than 1 minute, but I'm still heaps worried.. And recently have been wondering if my dental probs have been caused by possibly getting HIV
?? Although the dentist told me it's coz of my previous diet (fast food chips coke etc) and not visiting a dentist for 7-8yrs. I live in Australia specifically in south Australia and I read that statistically there aren't many HIV
Also if my exposure of oral sex was 2 weeks ago how long should I wait until going to get a definitive test? I'm stressing out skip much, I'm a bit of a hypochondriac and maybe a little OCD... But I feel horrible especially when looking on the net and ppl are saying there is small chance if getting the disease through oral, and also that HIV can cause dental caries etc :( :(
Thankyou Lizzie, I think it's so inspirational to have ppl like you and teak on here deal with ppl like me who are worried to death over HIV all the meanwhile you've been effected someway with this devastating disease. I think realistically my dental issues are due to me not visiting a dentist for 7-8yrs and even if there is a link between HIV and dental caries etc, it's a long process not something that happens 1yr after your first exposure... I know heaps of people saying there is no risk with oral, and some saying there is a small risk, realistically the only way I'll know is to get tested.. Also I heat HIV isn't actually that easy to catch, is this right? Anyway thankyou so much once again for your patience and reassuring words..
Just one more thing, iv been regretting
My oral sex encounters (even though they were <1 min per act) but iv been worried to the point iv stopped pursuing a girl I like coz I'm scared for her and don't want her to get HIV... Do you think I have a psychological problem here and should see a psychiatrist? Or is it normal for me to be feeling this way??
