Hi doc a couple of months back(3months) I was involved in virginal intercourse with my ex girl friend and it turned out we had unprotected sex.It was only one session and just wanna find out what are my chances from contracting hiv.I'm scared of seeing my doctor and getting tested,I haven't noticed no syptoms accept for the anxiety and stress attacks....
Pls help
a simple cold or the flu its bad around here now
stress can cause them or anxiety go to the health page here and read the symptoms i posted on stress and anxiety
good advice (hard to follow tho). if not HIV, what other sorts of infections could be causing what i'm experiencing, in your opinion? EBV?
i dont see a need to be so concerned here relax and chill out and stop reading everything you come across about hiv
yes, i have been doing research - i am a pretty rational person normally, but this is really freaking me out. but the internet is my only outlet until i get back on land, so it's difficult not to research my symptoms. my symptoms are definitely there, but i'm just hoping they are not HIV-related. thank you for listening - it is helpful.
symptoms are not a valid indicator for hiv infection
also i can tell you have been eading about symptoms worst mistake you could of done once you do that and your worried symptoms seem to be instant
ok - i hope not, i will get tested in a few weeks - i am not able to now, as i am working on a ship - which makes the waiting game that much more torturous. plus my symptoms are compatible with early hiv-infection, according to "the body" and several other reputable sites - so i'm truly concerned. with early hiv infection, would some symptoms linger? for example, i had the sore throat, etc but that has passed - now my symptoms are (mildly) swollen glands, stomach pain, white film on tongue (thrush-like film on gums this monrnig for the first time), and mainly the pins and needles and fatigue.
yes its possible once it enters the uretha but i doubt that happen in this case
i noticed the blood in the water in the toiled bowl - the blood was stuck to a bit of fuzz that must have attached to my penis after the sexual encounter (during sleep) - that's how i noticed it. like i said, i wouldn't be concerned if this were "just a blow job", but since there was definite blood involved, i'm a bit more concerned. if HIV+ blood entered my urethra, is transmission possible?
In the history of HIV there has never been anyone contract HIV from getting a blow job and you won't be the first. Like you were told before, if you have a concern about passing blood see your doctor. It is not an HIV concern.
you must have good eyesight to see two drops of blood come out of your penis
hi teak - thank you for your reassurance. the thing that concerns me is that blood was involved - when i urinated the next morning, two drops of blood came out of my penis, and there was a small cut on my lip. so there was definite exposure to blood - hopefully mine, not his. but of course, i'm not sure. i've read that pins and needles can be a symptom of early hiv infection. this morning i also noticed a thrush-like film on my gums. i continue to have a white tongue, since about a week post-exposure. still have mild stomach pain.
i do appreciate your advice - please explain why you discount the blood factor so quickly (i hope to share your confidence). :)
hey ..im also suffering frm those things .means im also feeling needlws and pins in my arms and feet ..but i don't know wht's tht..im very tensed cos of this ..if u come to knw about tht ..do reply me...i hope it's not related to hiv...god help us...
You were never at risk for HIV from receiving a blow job. See your doctor if you have a concern. It has nothing to do with HIV.
hello - i had a possibly exposure to HIV recently (i received a blow job but i noticed blood the next day when i urinated - not sure if it was mine or his). within 5 days, i had sore throat, swollen glands, fatigue, stomach cramps etc. it's now day 12 and the fatigue is still there, but i also have pins and needles in my feet, hands, arms, and legs - my glands are still a bit swollen but the sore throat is gone. i also have atighness in my chest. i was tested for all STD's, including rapid HIV - all neg. i know i am still in the window for HIV so i was just checking if pins and needles in the first few weeks was consistent with early HIV infection. thanks
Hi Czechboy, neither pins and needles, nor aches and pains are a symptom of primary HIV infection, especially after 10 weeks. ARS symptoms normally occur 2-4 weeks after exposure and include high fever (100 plus), rash and swollen lymph nodes (very hard to diagnose unless by a medical professional so don't try and find them yourself!), but 10-20% have no symptoms whatsoever.
Therefore, symptoms are never a good indication of HIV infection. The only thing that will tell you for sure is a HIV test. At 10 weeks, a simple rapid HIV test will tell you conclusively within 20 minutes.
To give you some peace of mind, single exposures with a known HIV+ individual are actually relatively low risk. If you check some of the threads, I think the estimate is about 1 in 1000.
Hope that's helpful and good luck.
