Biggest Problem in My Life

about me: 21 , heterosexual male, and i have bad health.



About a Month ago i took an OraQuick Rapid Test for H.I.V.

(the blood draw one) and The Results were "NEGATIVE".



Reason i took it:



for the last two years i've been having weight loss in my face like my cheeks narrow, my face use to be fuller, and i get colds and sore throats easy, headaches, chestpain, eye twitches.



Before I took the H.I.V. Test it had been 3 Years since i had unprotected sex. The Counselor at the clinic wondered why i waited so long to take an H.I.V. Test. I waited so long, because i had a cold that lasted longer than 3 weeks and i freaked out...like damn why is my immune system so low.



Okay after the Negative Test results, I went on about my life, but I start having real bad nosebleeds at work that lasted longer than 20 -30mins.. i was working in a warehouse around alot of dry air and pressure treated wood.

I went to two doctors and they both ran "blood tests" on me, and said I'm perfectly fine, i just need to get out of that environment, so i got out of my job.



But currently i still notice my skinny face, severe headaches, eye twitching, blurry vision sometimes..not often.



I'm afraid to hang out with my old friends, because they'll notice my face and say "damn whats wrong with you".



I've been eating properly, my body hasn't changed..just my face!



its strange...



i asked a few people and they told me, maybe i should take a Panel STD TEST...but So far i've taken an H.I.V. and TWO SIMPLE BLOOD TESTS.

do i need a PANEL STD BLOOD TEST?

I personally think its heart problems or brain problems..
maybe.
-for the awhile i've been having chest muscle pain..you know sharp pinching in my chest area..literally at different spots... on and off...sometimes it stops and sometimes its consistent...

- eye twitching happens every other day...or more..

- headaches i get every other day or more...my headaches vary sometimes they are on one side of my head..sometimes the back of my head...

my immune system feels low...but i don't have any cold symptoms but when i do get colds during the year they last a very long time...

so long..i actually thought i had something seriously wrong with me... me and my ex-girlfriend use to have unprotected sex a couple years ago...last year i took a h.i.v. test... my results were negative...

now fast forward a year or so... i have chest muscle pain, eye twitching, and headaches...

so right now i don't know whats going on..?
and I Don't know who i should see ..as far as doctors go..
i haven't had a full physical ex

Yea, i know its other immune diseases..but it seems to me like i lost weight in my face and i look like i haven't sleep in years. (i sleep well every night)

So soon as you tell anyone who (is NOT a doctor) that your losing weight (unwanted weight loss).

They automatically think "H.I.V. or Cancer"

Yea i'll have to go to the doctor and get checked out.

There are other immune diseases besides HIV. Not sure what blood work they did on you but they should check into other auto-immune issues. And thryoid? Know how you're doing there?
