Really you should go see a health care provider no one here can tell you whats going on. Never use the interanet to determine if you have something. Go and get this done and let that be the end of it.

So let me get this straight... You donated blood to have it screened for HI and other STD's is that correct? I suggest that you go see your health care provider and discuss about STD's how they are transmitted and what type of sypmtoms to watch for.

Please Please never ever use blood donation for testing your status for any infection. If you did have something it could be passed to someone else and what if that person was a family member or a close friend? How would you feel? or how about you what if you needed blood and someone else did the same thing how comforting is that? Blood donor screening here in the US is very good in detecting probelms with blod donor but never say never. Ok I am done with the lecture. Anything else?
