To Dobber21, Xhost et al

I have (AB) tested OK at 12 weeks and would like to thank evryone who answered my pleas for help /advice during these last (3) months. Although my exposure risk was relatively low, it was still unprotected vaginal/oral and with female of unknown status. I became worried after symptom shopping and became paranoid after getting a bad reception when I asked my partner if she knew her status. She refused to tell me if or when she had ever been tested and refused to speak to me again. (wonder why)

This site gave me some security and a plan for getting through the anxiety of the situation. I had no idea of where to go or who to talk to since I had stepped outside my marriage. The advice I got on this forum was valid and got me in touch with testing places where results would be fast and confidential.

I will probably always come here every now and then just to see if some of the same folks are still giving kind advice to people who need help. I learned at lot here and at the Doctor's forum. I never knew how little I knew about HIV and the mental stresses that are associated with it.

At my worst, Xhost and Dobber came to my rescue. Also Kekelow but I think she has been banned for some reason. Thanks for listening and telling me to hang tough till results are in!

Lastly, as you guys kept telling me: Symptoms don't mean *******!

Good Luck and Prayers for all who are going through this in their life at this time.
