Hi guys, just a little update after almost 4 years of fear and anxiety I have tested again and got a AG/AB negative result. I want to thank all that helped me on this site and to anyone going through this I sympathise, but what I will say is don't waste you time like I did, get tested and trust the results. Thank you JamesD1991 and iommi
I really hope what you are telling me is right and if so I want to thank everyone that has commented here.
I have been to my gp and that is what they have now referred me to. I honestly don't know why as I don't see this as an anxiety issue. I just wish I could be 100% certain that it's not hiv
You didn't even need to test in the first place. You need to seek professional mental help.
I understand what you are saying, the only thing that doesn't add up for me is that since then I have had a whole bunch of symptoms that relate to hiv. I no that this means nothing in most circumstances but I just no that the test were wrong my Dr will not give me another test as she does not see the need
Your test results tell you he's negative or he didn't infect you with hiv.
You did put yourself at risk for other stds but you ruled out hiv.
I hope you can find comfort in all our replies concerning your HIV fear.

Thank you so much for you kind help. The first test was 2/3 months after the second 3/4 months. I did not receive ejaculate but I did have an active cut.
Giving oral as you describe is considered no risk by most and a very very low risk by others. Do you know if he is hiv positive? I assume we don't.
Did you receive ejaculation? If not then that really is no risk. You are in a better place than you are convincing yourself.

That is a 4th generation test that also looks for a p24 antigen as well. When were the first two done?
I experienced strange symptoms as well, some that lasted 7 months. I'm 11months from my risk. During my first 4 months or so I spent hrs online that really just fueled my fear. 3~4 Hrs of sleep a night for over a month. We condition our thinking in a negative way. You must keep telling yourself you tested negative with the best generation test out there. You are not the rare, and I can't express enough, any rare exception. Retrain your mind on the positives of those facts. This may be enough to cure your ills. If not then you can confidently seek another direction with your Dr but know you ruled out hiv. What was your exposure?

How did you get past the anxiety, I seriously can not belive that with all the symptoms I have and have had that I am negative and this is all Dow to anxiety. I feel so alone and can not gud away out.
I can relate to your anxiety having gone through this window period and thinking I'll be an exception to the norm. Much info out there is dated and some not accurate. If you insist on not trusting your negative results, assuming they were AB only test then ask your Dr for a test that will look for the virus itself. Sounds like anxiety has to much control over you.
BTW, what test were done and what was your risk?
