NO NEED TO TEST YOU HAD NO RISK. the virus doesn't live long outside the hosts body.
Sorry to bring this post back up.... But I just need to make sure 100% if:
A. Do I need to test for this "possible" exposure...??
B. Or am I being completely ridiculous...??
Teak...? Nurse???
Thank you... And yes, Nurse, I am dealing with my anxiety issues.
I just want to be 100% safe for now on. I needed a little reassurance.
Thanks again for your reponse! :)
As nursegirl has correctly pointed out, there is absolutely ZERO risk in the situation you've described above. I consider myself no where near as educated on matters of HIV transmission as opposed to the regulars on this forum such as Teak, Lizzie, Nursegirl, Alienshadow, Regularjoey, etc. I've only been here for a few days, however let me assure you stressedout357, this ISN'T even an exposure to begin with. You're 100% fine, enjoy :)
COME ON!!!!! I had such high hopes for you...as you really seemed to be finally addressing your anxiety issues. :0(
You already know the answer to your questions.....
1. It wasn't used...there are laws about that.
2. Even if there WAS infectious fluids present on the toy...there would STILL be ZERO risk (remember you cannot get HIV from environmental surfaces, period).
PLEASE please please seek help for yourself...all you are doing is torturing yourself day and day out.....there IS help out there.
