Scared

Hello, please bear with me. I went clubbing and had a lot of drinks before. I was alone. I tried to misbehave with few girls but I swear I wouldn't do this in my normal state. I puked at the podium. I fell down while clubbing. I had a small bruise on my hand. I was in the cab and I puked there too. Somehow I got into a train and I had no remembrance of it. I puked there and that was all so much of an embarrassment. Some blacks came by and started bothering me. They pulled my hair and stuff. What if they injected me with something? Or what if my fresh cut(no stiches) had been into contact with theirs. If I had been injected what would the wound look like? This was probably my first and last outing so help me!

People running around stabbing others with needles is nothing more than urban legend.  Wound-to-wound contact isn't a risk unless there are large, gaping, actively bleeding wounds, such that both parties would need medical attention.

i have a small cut i cannot understand if it is a needle wound or not.I am scared.do i need to get tested?
If you had been injected, there would NOT be a cut.....at most there would be a very small red dot. And as Curfew has informed you, the only way you could have acquired HIV is if BOTH parties had very large, gaping, actively bleeding wounds deep enough to require sutures and they would have to be pressed together long enough for blood to be transferred from one person to the other......and one of them would have to be HIV+. If you can't accept that neither Curfew or I believe you should be tested, then get tested for your peace of mind.

A stab wound from a needle is usually just a small dot at the injection stop and blood may secrete from the site. I'm guessing you are fine!
