Paranoia I hope

[unknown44]

I recently was in someones home who  i was told was in and out of the hospital. They had a large scab on their forehead which did seem a bit bloody. I also noticed bruise near the underside of the elbow where i presume you could have an iv inserted and also normal dark bruising under the arms.  I was wondering if this could be HIV? The person was kind of overweight so that may be think probably not as i heard they had been sick for over 10 years.

The reason i am concerned is i am Diabetic and often puncture my skin for blood tests etc. I washed my hands of course but the day after i started to have a relapse of a cold i had a few weeks ago and mostly but not completely started to recover from and also had a mark on my lip which i am hoping is just a pimple. relapse being a cough that has come back a little bit. I had broncitis.


any thoughts?

No way no HIV risk at all. Move on with your life.

Had you read, the poster said what he was concerned about of which he had no risk.

What was ur exposure?

HIV is passed from unprotected vaginal and anal sex, and from IV drug users and mother to unborn/nursing child. Not from enviromental contact.
