Just a question

The last two weeks I have been suffering from anxiety due to what I call a HIV scare,  rashes that come and go tingling in hands.  I watched wired little bumps rise and go away, mouth sores popping up and bleeding then disappear next day.   But I have one that will not it is like a mild sore throat. Not even mild really pretty light a bad dry mouth that comes and goes and it feels like there is a drip in my throat.  Can anxiety cause this because I'm pretty calm right now but my throat is driving me nuts




Anyone one ever experienced this throat problem due to anxiety. The throat soreness was worst this morning

Well my post nasal drip is almost gone. It's been two weeks And I still have the same pink colored rash on chest and back. It is not raised doesn't itch at all. I also have some very small dark red spots on my chest the size of a needle pin would be the best way to explain it.  I am not stressed out any more I am usually quite convinced that I had no risk.  But when I see this rash and every time I felt that drip in my throat I have to question if the condom the escort provided was latex.  It felt a lil more snug than a condom I wold have bought maybe that's a good thing.   Anyways this been going on for a while driving me crazy. I don't think I've had a fever but two days ago I got bad headache I went right to bed and when I woke upy post nasal drip was much better but I still have rash

Red bumps on one's back is very normal during the summer.  It can easily be a heat rash caused by sweating.  Everyone needs to stop reading too much into symptoms as they really don't mean a damn thing when it comes to early HIV infection.
