Please help me with my situation..

Hi,

Recently (2 weeks back) I had a sexual encounter (Oral by her and Vaginal insertion) with a woman. I didn't wear a condom during the oral but used it during vaginal insertion. Unfortunately it has been ripped during the intercourse and I could not notice it until I finished the act. I was hell scared from then on. Although the woman claims to be 100% sure that she is healthy I am very concerned. This encounter is the first one in my life. After this exposure I had the following physical changes.

1. Just after the day of the act there existed a sense of urinating frequently that lasted for few days (no pain, burning sensation and puss) and I dont feel it any more.

2. A week after exposure I ate lots of ice cream (around 0.7 ltrs). Immediately the next day after that I had a very sore throat which included cough and mucous. I visited a doctor who gave me ROXID(antibiotic) with ascorill she said this might be strep. After a week I still have this so I visted an ENT specialist who asked for a blood test and a CT scan. After the tests he diagnosed that I have "concha bullosa" with a deviated septum along with swollen tonsils. He gave me antibiotic "ofloxacin".

Following are my blood test results:

total leucocytes : 8000
lymphocytes: 37% (22-44 required)
monocytes: 2% (0-4 required)


Please let me know what are my chances of contracting a STD (HIV in particular). I am very scared.

Chemo medications, antirejection medications for transplants and chronic IV drugs.

Is there any kind of medication other than nPEP that would delay seroconversion? I am asking this question because I ve taken certain medicines such as azithromycin and some antibiotics prescribed by an ENT during this window period.

Very unlikely to change. In fact, many doctors claim they've never seen people tested negative at 6 weeks turn positive at 3 months. However, no one can be sure that 6 weeks are sufficient enough. Therefore, guidelines still state 3 months as the conclusive, END POINT, ''done-no-what-ifs'' point for a HIV status. And remember to trust your results too. Peace :)

Thanks for the reply. Is this result highly unlikely to change? I saw many posts in this forum stating 8 weeks is very reliable result. What are the circumstances in which 8 weeks result might change at the end of 3 months? I am only asking such questions to calm my nerves and listen to answers from experts.

Hi,

I had an anti body test today i.e. after 8 weeks of possible exposure and it came back negative. I had TRIDOT test in India. My question is how reliable is TRIDOT test. I Will again test next month which is 3months after exposure. Can you please tell me if I can test with TRIDOT test next time as well for conclusivity
