Aa
my risk
Okay here is my question!!!. A little over 6 weeks ago I had unprotected sex with a female. I am Male. I know she doesn't do drugs at all. It was a one time deal almost ruined other parts of my life. I used a condom about half the time and then took it off for some stupid reason. I live in a small town in Wisconsin. I never finished myself and got up and left. I was okay for awhile and then some stress came into my life. While around the same time the stress came into my life after 5 panic attacks in one day the next day my stomach hurt, it hurt for around 4-5 days off and on. I started thinking that this is the signs of hiv. So i started freaking out. I went to the doctor and had them check me over and check my lymph nodes all over my body. Everthing was good the doc says. So at 6 weeks I had and hiv test rapid 20 minute test. Came back negative. I am still freaking out because of the 3 month window period. My fiance right now didn't feel good for the last couple of days. Her stomach hurt just a little after eating each time. But went away afterwards. Worried that these are hiv symptoms. What are my real odds of being infected right now. Should I be worried. I guess that is a dumb question i probably should be. The lady at the aids testing place tells me she is like 97% positive I don't have hiv with my risks and with the negative test at 6 weeks. I saw another doctor yesterday to see if he thought there was anything with my nodes or body that he could notice and he said I seem fine. And also says He is 99.9% positive I am fine. I don't understand how these people can be so sure. I am 29 years old and have a lot of anxiety. Before this happened also. I am on meds for anxiety and just pray to god I am okay. I have like 40 days to wait for the 12 week test. What do people think. Please give honest real answers. Thank you so much,
You were given when to test and obtain a conclusive negative result. This has been discussed over and over if you want to read more use the search function in "search this community" and read all the explainations.
How hard is it to contract from a female. And why do some people and doctors on this forum say 6 weeks in conclusive. Why in MA do they say 6 weeks is conclusive. What is the deal with so much conflicting info!!!
