STD Risk HIV and Testing!
Hi I have consulted doctor online and this is what he said. I am scared as I thought I don't need testing, now with the answer I am again under stress. Please answer if with condom protected sex I need STD testing? If so when ? and what all tests need to be done. Since the last time I had sex was two months ago.
I did sex with a CSW(Prostitiute) in her home 2009, had burning sensation after the next day, it subsided then 2 weeks later did it with another CSW (only 2-3 strokes) both encounters with condom. tested -ve 4 hiv as per doc advice @3.5 months. Did it in april 2010 very rough sex indeed but with condom double bagging one did break when i tried to do anal with her. In march 2011 did it with call girls(myself with two girls at one time) at a friends bachelor party & the next week with the spa Turkish girl - masseuse. All with condom. Since the april 10 sex I have developed a skin disease on my arms, torso, shoulders with big blisters(not crowded but individual or in pairs). Is this HIV related or should I test in 1months time which would be 3 months from my last encounter in march or no need to test? Would this have any effect if I want to marry.
My docters suggestion: "Repeated sexual encounters with multiple partners definitely exposes one to risk of STD/HIV.As you have developed skin problem right now ,you must get all tests for STD/HIV at frequent intervals as HIV virus has long incubation periods .so test negative after one month does not mean one can`t suffer from HIV/aids.So repeated testing is required along with proper treatment,without any delay. If completely treated marriage may not be effected.I have seen wife getting HIV from husbands."

he is asking me to be also treated! I cant understand is he trying to make a quick buck?
tdot 123 thank u for the reply.
Yes I have mentioned it was protected sex with condom with out any drug or alcohol abuse as I am a complete teetotaler. But cant understand why he is asking me to test. I hate to get a prick and be em brassed before others. Since i wanted to get a quick result I consulted him online and did not wait for the STD specialist. The Docter consulted is a MS general surgeon and a pregnancy specialist but not an STD or Skin specialist.
