You will need to test at 6 weeks then at 3 months for a conclusive
Symptoms are never a valid indicator for an HIV infection
Sounds as if your anxiety may be up and causing you to freak out goodluck
but my doctor says that 3 week is a good time to know the presence of virus..
wat are the chances of unprotected vaginal sex to cause hiv ?
sorry sir am worried too much thats why...
swollen lymps with abdominal pain while taking a big breath..is this a symptom of hiv?
No your anxiety is causing these attacks not HIV
Unprotected vaginal sex carries a risk of approx. 1 infection in 2000 exposures for males (if and only if the partner has HIV).Very, very few heterosexuals have HIV that are not a.)occasional MSM b.) injection drug user or c.) regular sexual partner of one of the above. If your partner is not infected your chances are 0%.
thanks for the replys..
one more question i had noticed from the site that hiv virus cannot stay in open air for a long time .....
then how will the virus enter to the men with unprotected vaginal non ejaculted sex..
if so wat will be the risk factor...
Pain when breathing deeply on abdominal some times on back is this a symptom of hiv please help
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooo
That is probably one good reason why HIV only transmits during penetration - anything sexual that does not result in penetration is safe. I'm no expert on this but I read a lot and from what I've seen HIV has a very difficult time transmitting from person to person. It has an even more difficult time (10x less compared to anal) when the transmission route is vaginal, and yet even more so when passing from female to male (roughly twice as difficult) - probably partly for the reasons you bring up and partly from other factors that make it inefficient.
Your risk: You don't say much about your partner but a typical hetero non drug using female is probably 1/1000 and male to female transmission is typically quoted as 1/2000 per exposure. Sounds like your odds are in the ball park of 3/1,000,000 or one in 300,000.
Extremely low - with that said why not get tested for certainty and psychological comfort, and why not wear condoms? they really do alleviate a ton of anxiety.
i had taken p24 test after 30day ang get the result negative ..
i think the main thing is my anxiety ..
thanks for the reply
ANxiety is your problem not HIV remember test at 84 to 90 days for a conclusive result
how the hiv rashes looks like ? when it appears after the virus entered in to the body? does the symptoms come alone or acompanying by another?
you are wayyyyyyyyyyy looking into this tooooooo much
sorry..i am so much worried ..
i dont have any one here to tell my problems am alone here ..
thats why i am asking to you..
Your 30 day test is pretty close to being conclusive, ESPECIALLY for someone with your low risk level. If I were you at this point I would take a deep breath, thank God I don't have HIV, and resolve to be consistent in using condoms in the future.
ARS rash - so I've been told - consists of tiny red spots all over the chest, belly, etc. that do not itch or hurt. It doesn't come and go and is almost always accompanied by a (high)fever as well as other symptoms. Symptoms come and go together... but I really don't think ARS is something you need to worry about.
Assuming your lady friend doesn't inject heroin and doesn't have sex with bisexual MSMs, your risk is almost astronomically low. Your 30 day test is somewhere in the range of 95-99% accurate... couple that with your already low risk from unprotected vaginal exposure and I wouldn't even bother getting tested again.
The only conclusive test is 3 months post exposure.
By my calculations, the negative test results at 4 weeks makes his odds of having HIV less than 1/500000, given his exposure. Which I believe is over 5x smaller than the odds of getting killed by lightning.
So bottom line is expect your 3 month to be negative.
thanks a lot....................
how the swollen lymp gland looks like should it be big or how in size..is it painful.. where it occurs.. how much the p24 test cost? i had paid Rs 1000 is it the price please reply to this..........
No matter what 3 months is conclusive 6 weeks is a better idea of your status BUT you must follow that result with a final conclusive test I have told you to CALM down seek help if you cant seem to get your fears under control
I just read in the expert forum 5 minutes ago where Dr. Handsfeld says that a standard antibody test at 6 weeks is conclusive and the 3 month recommendation is outdated.
Until the guidelines are changed 3 months is still conclusive
So I already seen it still Dr Handsfield has always said that its not new news to anyone regular here
I will not repeat myself on this thread again
