Please help condom broke

[Nerves89]

I'm 24 year old woman who made a huge mistake.  I am in a monogamus relationship for 10 years.  I steped out one night,  I had protected sex then the condom broke.  he pulled right out.  I then went two days later and had sex with my bf.  I then went to the doctor to get checked out. she told me I had cervictis,bv, and a yeast infection.  The dude told me his hiv status is neg.  He went to the doctor 4 weeks and got a hiv test which was neg. So did I.  I am now waiting on my elisa test results.  I am very scared. what are the chances of me catching hiv. from this encounter. My neck gets really warm on the inside, my back aches, and my ears are really stuffy

Welcome to the Forum.  Your risk of HIV is very, very low.  Even though your partner had HIV, the likelihood that he had HIV is very, very low.  Few heterosexual men in the U.S. who do not use IV drugs have HIV and his negative HIV test about a month ago makes this even less likely.

Even if he had HIV (and as I said above, this is most unlikely), your risk of HIV from a single exposure is still less than 1 in 1000.  You really have nothing to worry about.  I am confident your ELISA test will be negative.

Just to be sure about you however, you should have been treated as a sex partner to a man with NGU with either azithromycin or doxycycline.  Were you?  

Hope this comment helps.  EWH

And to add he tested pos. for NGU....

[Nerves89]

Yes!! I was treated.. For the cervictis.  He was also treated. What about the yeast infection and the bv? The doctor gave me flagyl for the bv, but it's not working.  

[Nerves89]

Should my boyfriend also be treated for NGU.  I feel really bad for cheating on him.  I will never make this mistake again.  Thank you for you advice. I really trust your opinion. To add, my chlamydia and gonnorhea were neg.

[Edward W Hook, MD]

If your gonorrhea and chalydial tests were negative at the time you were treated your BF probably does not need treatment.  

You should discuss the fact that the meidcations for yeast and BV do not appear to be working. They should.  EWH

The yeast infection meds. works, but the BV doesn't. I will post my results on here next week.  I get my results next wednesday. Can you explain this pain in my neck? My doctor said my lymph nodes are not swollen. but I had this weird feeling in my neck for about a month and my shoulders really bother me.

[Edward W Hook, MD]

The pain in your neck may represent tesion. There is no reason to think that it might be an STD.  EWH

Dr. Hook,

Now I am really scared because the chicago public health department told me that. Its still a chance I contracted hiv and i need to be tested at 3 months. I can't possibly wait that long.  The dude I had sex with told me his antibody test came back neg. but he didn't receive his Elisa bac. Can I just teat at 6weeks to be assured, or do I have to wait the 3 months.  I thought 4 weeks was goog enough, but I hear differ. please advise me..  

[Edward W Hook, MD]

they are being overly conservative.  I have nothing more to say.  Plese re-read my original response.  EWH

[Nerves89]

Thank you! I totally trust your advice. These is your expertise. I'm just stressing my self out...

[Nerves89]

Ok. last question!!! I recieved my hiv elisa results after 4 weeks neg.  Ok, I'm now experiencing lymph nodes swellen on the right side of groin area.. can it be because of the B.V.I was also wondering is it ok continue having my unprotected sex with my BF of 10 years.. I know his status is neg.. and to be on the safe side I am going to test at six weeks.. Thank you!!! I appreciate it.  

[Edward W Hook, MD]

Your risk of HIV form the expsoure you describe is quite low and your negative HIV ELISA confirms this.  I see no reason for you to abstain from sex with your BF.  EWH

[Nerves89]

I know you told me that my risk is low. but, Im now experiencing lympth in my neck and my groin area. I went to the emergency room last night and the doc there told me the discharge im having is not BV. I am very scared at this point. He didnt prescribe antibotics because he said he didnt know what to treat. Could this symptoms be HIV related. I'm nauseated, and having loose stool. I'm schecdule for a PCR DNA test tomorrow.. do you think it' I should take the test. It cost so much money. Im just lost. Please advise me.. Thank you

[Nerves89]

Can it be that I created HIV because the condom broke and I went two days later and had unprotected sex with my BF.. please answer me on this..

[Edward W Hook, MD]

This is not HIV from the expsoure you describe.  Your partner's test was negative.  An HIV PCR test is not tneeded.  It is far more likely that you have some other, non-STD, non-HIV viral infection.

This will conclude this thread.  New questions will require a new post.  EWH

[Nerves89]

I know you said this complete the thread.. but I am really worried.. please answer me.. I took a stool culture at the hospital. It came back postitive for C Diff.. is this hiv related.  My glands on my right side of my grion is swollen and it hurt when I walk. I continue to have vaginal discharge, for a month. The Doc said all my test was neg, but I have this werid feeling in my vagina.  I have two swollen lymph nodes on each side of my ear. Could the C Diff be caused by being on antibiotics for a whole month ( Flagy, Diycolline, Amocillican, trindmax, diflucan,) all these meds for a month.. I thought the hiv test I took was a Elisa, it was a EIA test.  Please just let me know.. No seems to help me.

[Edward W Hook, MD]

No, this is not HIV-related.  All further questions will be deleted. If you wish to pursue this further you must start a new thread.  EWH
