Rash

I have a rash all over my body.  It started on Sunday about 4pm and has by Monday morning it was really read from neck to toes.  I went to doctor yesturday and he told me in was probably food poisening because when he pushed in, it turned white which he said was a good since in was a minor rash.  He treated me with steroids and benedryl and it seeems like it is working as some of the rash is gone and other parts are not as read.  Any comments to make me feel better?

The rash is probably not HIV-related, but only a test can tell for sure.  Start using condoms if you have many girlfriends, keep yourself and your partners safe.

What was your risk that you thought the rash may be HIV related?
