About 15 years back,when I was 9 years old , a guy 4-5 years older to me forced me to have anal sex with me. He penetrated for about 10 seconds without ejaculating. Obviously, we weren't using any condom. Till date I didn't have any symptoms of hiv. But for the past 6 months my health has deteriorated. I suffered from malaria, then GERD, then typhoid, and I fell very low fever every now and then. Is it possible that I am carrying hiv virus for the last 15 years.
His advice was incorrect. I've had HIV for 29 years and never had symptoms, hangon gave you the correct information.
Teak , Please advice.I have read in the forums that your replies are really helpful.
Getting a test done isn't a feasible option for me as I reside in a remote area. Can u tell me if my risk is HIGH or LOW OR VERY LOW. Thnx for your advice.
