Diarrhea
Hello. I have been suffering from diarrhea for like a year already, doctors dont seem to know what it is. I've taken the hiv test 3 times this year the last one done on spetember with four months after the previous sexual encounter with another male partner in which i was active (top) and wore a condom. I did insertive oral sex without condom, but still i hear its a low risk.
I guess my question is, given my circumstances and testing negative on september with four months before the last sexual encounter, is it possible that my chronic diarrhea could be hiv related? I'm really worried 'cause doctors are not able to find the cause yet :(

Sorry what apart of you this didnt you understand? you had ZERO risk and you have already tested negative???
PLEASE HELP!! My blood test results just arrive and although hiv was not done, my monocyte percentage is really high. Could that imply an hiv infection? I'm very worried !!!
Thank you Apollo. Thanks allot you made me feel better. I'll keep you posted on my process if it's ok. today I had some x-rays done and I'm still missing some tests and the colonoscopy :S yikes!! But thank you, thanks allot.
Ignore him as well and show him the experts ( Dr's ) forum for education :)
I never did. But the one I'm seeing now did tell me that the window period was 6 months.
If he says that, then i would not go back to them lol
phew! that takes a load off. thanks for your help, I do really appreciate it. People in my country (even health professionals) are not very informed about HIV. Once a doctor told me it can be transmitted by kissing. You get the idea...
In regards to HIV yes
So it's fine you mean, it's ok to give a ******** without condom
From a HIV point of view its fine, but of course their is always a chance of an STD.
What about oral sex? Do you recommend condoms for that as well? or what's the safety advice for that? Honestly...
Well when they put that into your head it gives you doudt, but be assured that will never effect your results buds, its pure scare mongering, but pathetic tbh.
As long as you use condoms, you will be safe from HIV :)

Ok thanks man! I will rest for now but, i dont know if this is a mental disease or what, but i am sickly obssesed with the risk of hiv. its probably because i was raised real catholic and they say gays die of aids and burn in hell. I odnt know, anyway, thanks for your help.
No mate. 6 months was outdated in 2004 :)
Hi. Thank you. I know the 3 month period is ocnclusive, but could it ever be possible that it takes longer? my doctor told me that hiv takes up to six months to break out :(
You never had a risk and you have tested negative, you dont have HIV thats for sure, 100% certain. What ever is going on with you is not HIV realted.
*** Im sorry: "...with four months AFTER my last sexual encounter."
