Dear Doctors
I am hoping that you can help me come to a conclusion, on what i need to do from here, i will do my best to explain what has happened to my since the exposure.
I was travelling in Paraguay when I was met a girl while intoxicated I made a bad decision to sleep with her we had twice unprotected vagainal sex, i noticed when we finished that she had been mensturating. I was not in a place where I could get to a doctor until ten days later, he sent me to the hospital where they gave me tablets to take (pep) i now beileve. I started the pep ten days after the exposure, I came up with a red itchy rash on the inside of my legs which i was later told was a yeast infections it went into the head of my penis too.
About 15 days after while still on pep i woke up with head ache, vomiting and sore muscles, i felt tired too, that night when i was in a resturant i felt like i was having hot flushes. I never took my temp and but i dont remember feeling hot in the days after that however the the air temp was like 40c there.
A few days after that i came up with another rash sort of purple on my hands and feet and, arms, and i think a little on my stomach when I went back to the hospital, they told me to stop taking the pep and I did after being on it for thirteen days, my muscles where also twitching and they still are now some 8 months later. Over the last 8 months I have had a few colds and some inflamed hairs on my inner thighs and chest.
When these symptoms first appeared i didnt know what they where but now it seems very apparent that it could be HIV. I am confused however because of my negative test results i tested negative at 40 days post exposure, but now i realise it was only 13 days post pep ( i have read this can effect the tests) also neg at 14 weeks post exposure and around 75 days post pep was neg antibody and neg for a viral test sorry don't know which one. I also tested at one week under six months since the pep antibody neg.
