Thank you for your reply doctor and thank you for reading all 3 posts i put.
Your right i do feel guilty everyday that i slept with another man who i do not no while me and ny boyfriend was on a break. The symptoms came after the one night stand and i have felt guilty ever since. But the symptoms are real.
I so hopw you are right and my test is negitive.
I will report back when i get my results but its a two week wait in the north east middlands.
But like i said thank you.

I anticipate that your results will be negative and when they are, you need to beleive the results and concentrate on moving forward. EWH

I did find the strengh to test annomusly on friday it will take two weeks for my results but i just dont no what to exspect.
My body is just telling me something aint right and i have not felt the same since i have had so much anxiety. Just lately weeks 17/ 18 i find little odd scabs on my arms that look like spots but there scabs, feel like something is crawling in my skin on arms, and i keep getting bumps on my eye where the eye liner goes. This lymph node in my groin has been here for way to long. I also had antibiotics twice during all this. Came off the arm inplant in july and started the birth control pill in october.
When i first found my node i did put a pin in it as thought it was an ingrown hair and when i googled lymph i really startex to freak. Plus my long term boyfriend does not no i slept with someone on our break i no he has not slept with anyone else and it would kill him if he new i had. But i cant stop watching him and his symptoms.
Sorry about the essay i just had no one else to talk to ane nowhere else to turn.
I had unprotected sex with a man a really dont no and ever since i have just been living in a nightmare i can not wake up from.
King regards from a scared female in the uk

Welcome to the Forum. I'll try to help. It seems as though the pseudonym you have used may tell much of the story, as does your comment that "he does not no I slept with another man and it eats up at me everyday." Any single exposure to a partner of unknown status is relatively low risk- most people do not have STIs, including HIV and most exposures to infected partners do not lead to infection. The symptoms that you describe are quite non-specific and do not suggest HIV or any other STI.
You do not mention any testing related to your exposure outside of your relationship. If you have not yet been tested, my suggestion is to seek testing, both for other STIs as well as HIV. Once you have been tested and have the results (which I anticipate will be negative), then you need to believe them and move forward. Whether moving forward involves discussing your other partner when your relationship was in disarray is, of course up to you.
I hope that this comment is helpful to you. EWH

As you can see i have had every symptom in the book.
I do get cystitis on a reg at least once a year. I have had yeast infections before but never that long and never that bad.
I had a pap done in october it came back normal with high risk hpv and was confirmed at coloscopy in january.
My lympth node in groin was 1cm on first ultra sound scan in november in feburary it had shrunk to 0.5cm. But it has been there through all symptoms. I did fracture my toe in sept but i doubt that has ought to do with it.
The guy in question was a guy i met on line he was there when me and my boyfriend split up and made me feel loved again. Oh i am a 30 year old femal from the uk.
I no nothing of the guy i was exsposed to. 18 weeks later i have found out that he sleeps around alot. Has two different children with two different women one being 10yrs and the other about 6months old. He goes on holidays abit lads ones. He sniffs cocaine. I do no two girls he has slept with but thats over 4 years ago.
AT 11wks my symptoms seemed to of stopped apart from my lymth node which is still here. I have soft stools on and off but i feel like i have lost weight on my bum and thighs as my bottoms bag.
I asked the guy about his std hiv status started stalking him with the questions and he said i had mentual issues and in the end after 2 months of me stalking him about it he got a injuction out against me for harresment. He is a very well known guy and very popular as well especially with the females.
My boyfriend of 5yrs who sufferes with depression over the last few weeks keeps saying he does not feel right, complaing of his stomach and head and he has lost so much weight i am in such a state and keep secretly checking him that i cant work out if i have hiv and have infected him or if its his depression.
Myself i feel like i havve lost weight i even brought new scales. I dont remember a fever as i have checked my temperture each day wbi is 36c apart from week 2.
