HI, I am 30 year's old had sex with a sex worker in the month of NOV2009 and undergone HIV test and Westren blot 3 month's post exposure and the result was negative I undergone these test's in India but wat concern's me is that I am unable to breathe properly(shorten breathing) and I am getting ulcer's in my mouth, breathing problem and body aches very frequently. So I just wanna know whether these symptoms related to HIV. Do I need to fear of contracting HIV.

your test PROVES that you do not have hiv...NO WAY...NO HOW.

see your doctor if you are having health concerns...it is NOT hiv related.

ok i am not  Teak but i can offer you my insight .... a Western Blot or any test 3 months after exposure can be considered conclusive ... tests are becoming sensitive that even after 6 week exposure 95% of people will show positive ... i think your shortness of breathe and whatever else you experiencing is not HIV related , anxiety can trigger many symptoms and shortness of breathe could be panic attacks coupled with major anxiety ...
