sorry i started a new thread. with these symptoms it might be hard to believe a 12 week test without a pcr. i don't want to hurt my family. i've read that stress and anxiety can cause all my symptoms but dentist at medhelp doesn't think so about thrush.thanks lizzie i've really apreciated your postings for the last weeks or so!

your "symptoms" are not indicative of hiv.

two more weeks and you will have a CONCLUSIVE result...but i can tell you that it is HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHLY unlikely that your 10 week negative will turn positive in two weeks.

relax...

until you are in a mongamous relationship where both of you have tested...ALWAYS use condoms for vaginal/anal intercourse.   sex lasts a few minutes...HIV LASTS A LIFETIME.
