I cant take it any more suicidle

I had high very risk exposure in December after moving to this small town and a few week later I started getting symptoms like rash, thrush and Oral Hairy Leukoplakia (OHL) just to name a few, now my hair and nails stopped growing, I know these are the early symptoms but theres nothing in this small town and iam alone here with no car, I cant take this and Im thinking about just ending it all, nothings healing, would all this happening so fast?

please dont come here speaking of suicide...it's very disrespectful to those who are LIVING with hiv or have a loved one who is.

Get tested. Symptoms mean NOTHING at all in telling you your status. If you cant drive to get tested order this HIV test and you can do it all by mail. Wait until 3 months have passed from your last exposure to test.

Thanks Teak, BigMistake1 I just read on aidsmed.com that oral leukoplakia is one of the first signs are you sure it comes later?

There isn't any hair loss. I get mine cut once a month. I don't have a healing issue either.

No. Thrush is from hiv meds and oral leukoplakia is advanced stage. It wouldnt be happening that fast.
