Trying really hard not to feel depressed or anxious. Any advice on how best to manage would be greatly appreciated.
My risk:
Unprotected oral sex with a massage girl. Lasted a few minutes. I didn't ses any sores on her lips but I didnt take a good look at the state of her inner mouth. She could have had sores and I would not have been able to see it. Plus I was drunk.
My situation:
Feeling fatigued all the time, had been sick for a while, started off as a stomach flu and now my stomach is slowly recovering. I had what looked to be jock itch type fungus on my crotch that I have never gotten before. I had an episode of dry skin all over the body and including the palms of my hands. Plus my joints are a bit achy and constantly cracking.
Tests done so far:
At week 3: all STIs and STDs (Chlamedia, Ghonorea, Syphilis, HIV and Hep A/B/C - all negative
At week 5: same test as week three - all negative
At 40 days (almost 6 weeks) - rapid HIV test - negative
My doctor's advice:
Says I do not have HIV and that I need to relax and do other things to keep off google searching or self diagnosing. I dont know why, but I dont fully believe what he is saying. He said there is nothing concerning about my symptoms plus I did a regular blood test and he said that looked good. He suggested I seek consulting to help with the anxiety.
Do I sound crazy? I am still within the window period so isnt there technically still a small risk that I may turn out positive?
Do my symptoms sound like HIV?
The incident happened two months ago, would someone with HIV have an immune system compromised enough to do this within two months?
Is there anything else that can cause the kinds of symptoms I am feeling other than HIV?
If I sound like I am being ridiculous, can anyone give me advice on how to manage my anxiety without having to go to counseling?
