Dear Dr!
Let me introduce myself. I am female, I will be 30 this year, and I am writing you from Europe. I have already read a lot of forum, and article about HIV infection, symptomps, a lot of story about another people with similar symptom as I have, and now I am very confused, and very scaried, and I don't know what shall I do, what shall I think about HIV. So I need your advice, I need your help.
I had a HIV exposure last year in October. I am not 100% sure, but I think this man is HIV+, and He knew about it, and wanted to infect me. After exposure I didn't have any flu or something like that, only in Christmas time suddenly my tounge became very white and dry, in 2 or 3 days later my half face became a little bit bigger for a half day. Maybe it can be happened because of lymphs.You should know that before Christmas I started to worried about the HIV infection very very much, and I really thought this man infected me. After this my symptomp came out..In the new year I tried to forget this, and I said It is impossible, and I have to forget everything, but I couldn't, that's why after 19 weeks of the exposure I went for a test (Biomérieux, Vironostika HIV UNI-Form II kit, Elisa),the result come back I am negativ. Actually It is very hard to believe in it, because I have for 1 or 1,5 month white tounge, and i have OHL too. In many article I read, it can be a sign of the infection, and mostly HIV + people has OHL. On the other hand I read a lot of story in HIV forum, and I found a few story which is very similar with my story. Intercourse probably with HIV+ man or woman, after that the tests are negativ, but the symptomps are the same e.g OHL. How can it happen?I don't understand really, and I am afraid of very much. I would like to beleive in my test result, but it is so hard because of the thing I wrote you. Pls help me Dr!Is there any explanation of the similar symptom?Why do I have OHL, if I am not infected (based on the test)? The test I made is good for HIV2 too?Have you alredy heard a story like I have, that the person wiht OHL become from HIV- to HIV +?
Thanks in advance for your help!
