Aa
great, just great
the last time i had unprotected sex was 2 years ago and i was tested last month and it was negative. I felt like then i could move on and not worry anymore. Well, now i just read a story from someone saying he/she had a risk, test negative months later but would test positive 5 years later!! Is it true that hiv has a weak strain? Do i have to test much?? now im scared. I thought 3 months is the window period.... I guess i gotta test year after year... does hiv have that weak of a strain that it wouldnt show up for years on a test???

but yea, i read stories on this hiv website that one person tested negative months after a risk and then would test positive 5 years later!! I told my friend (who is in med school about that) and he said to seek help from a mental help proffessional. I just dont know what to do!! Im afraid i could test poz years later or so or become really sick w/o having sex in the future!! :(
A weak strain really? That makes zero sense. You dont have HIV. I wish you the best man.
