risk of infection (HIV)

by Alisher2007, May 28, 2007 12:00AM
Hello , i got a question about HIV and CMV , i used condoms while vaginal sex with prostitute which status's unknown and was infected with CMV(1:800) .
how's that possible if i used good quality condoms ? after 6 month i was tested for HIV - negative , recently again i had protected secual contact with a prostitute ( used condoms ) , within 2 weeks after that again – fever, monoculiose sindrom , pain in musculs etc , was tested for STD ( besides HIV) , and again CMV ( 1:800 )

Could you pls explain - whether it's possible to be infected with CMV several times or it's just a aggravation of  CMV ? should I be worried about HIV ?

What's the best treatment against CMV ? thanks a lot in advance

hi man.
The CMV it's similar to EBV(the same family of herpes virus)so the transmission it's also for saliva.

If you've used the condom and this has work not broken or not lambskin), the risk for hiv isn't a your problem!

latex condom=no risk!

For CMV and medicin go to the doc!

stay well.
