Yes I actually getting ready to go for the follow up test.my doctor doesn't think I got it because like you said john it is a very fragile disease .what about the saliva from making out and the blowjob that I gave him? He doesn't believe he gave it to me either and my doctor told me to stay off the internet go figure lol . I am just acting like a fool over this whole thing and worrying myself sick.I constantly check my lymph nodes to make sure they are.normal size and I first went to get tested when my allergies got bad and I though it was HIV my doctor assured me I was worrying to much.is a negative test at 50 days after exposure accurate at all? And what about the saliva from making out what about if I came.into contact with the sperm on my hand or stomach
Hi Walleye,
Thanks for such a good question, this is one that we can all learn from and maybe clarify a few things. Firstly, and luckily, HIV is not as easy to catch as we might believe, especially when we use protection. You and your physician are correct. The "window period" is a time when some people who are HIV positive and this can last up to six months in some individuals which is why it is recommended that you be re-tested. Keep in mind that people who test negative in the beginning but test negative at the six month mark is the exception, not the normal. I don't think I would do much different if I were you. As far as your cough and phlem just remember that it is cold and flu season. If you feel that it's anything unusual it may be worth mentioning to your physician but otherwise I don't think I'd worry too much about it. Hope this info helps to put your mind at ease. Can you let us all now how the follow up testing goes?
Happy Thanksgiving,
John
