What should i do?....
Hi friends of the forum:
I know I said I was going to be gone for awhile but i have no else to speak to...tomorrow will be my 8TH WEEK possible post exposure, tested 7TH WEEK NEG-RAPID BLOOD TEST, and i do see my Doctor tomorrow to see if all my symptoms are hiv ARS or hiv anxiety/stress related..should I just stick to the plan and test at 12th weeks or should I test tomorrow and wait for the results. For the last 10 days i've developed sweaty armpits w/slight pain, stiff neck, possible lymph nodes are swelling now, headaches, and possible cold sores forming, w/slight nausea this morning. Each week when I developed a symptom i went right away and got tested for HIV and all stds, all neg when i got the muscle aches, 2 night sweats, sensitive skin/burning feeling,nauseau, joint pain, sweating and hugh pimples on back & buttucks-i haven't got a thefever or rash yet, the highest twas 98.8-9. What should I do??? Thank you all for opinions and thoughts, i'm also in the anxiety community and they said i should address my new concerns here. Please bear w/me as I have no one else to talk to.

Yeah I know its hard to believe, I suffer from anxiety and it gets really bad if I think I am sick. I convince myself I am sick and then its like you can imagine the symptoms and swear they are there, which assures your mind that yes indeed you are sick. Its a rough cycle.
7 week test is very good; what was exposure?
what was your exposure?
when i went to E.R a couple weeks ago, that's what the attending Doctor said that it was anxiety,but it's so hard to belive...i said to him this has to be the HIV ARS in my body,..why would i be in such pain..then he gave me atavan thru i.v then i was out like a light,..we'll see what my doc has to say tomorrow..
Many of your symptoms can be brought on from anxiety.
