Please help I am LOST

Hi,

Here is my story. I would be very grateful for any input.

Day 0:  Unprotected received fellatio and protect vaginal sex with an escort. Mutual masturbation and vaginal secretion probably in contact with my penis from hands
Day 1: frequent urination and burning tip of the penis for 2 days. I do not urinate frequently anymore
Day 4: intermittent discomfort in the left testicular lasting for 8 weeks as well as discomfort in the upper legs area.
Day 10: a rash, probably a Maculopapular very itchy rash lasting for 6 days. (I had gone to the beach the same day and I started to feel itchy while in the water. I had taken also the day before 1,5 mg of Zithromax)
11 week: White furry tongue (neither fungi or bacterial infection) with a fever of 37,2 Celsius lasting for a week. White tongue persisting until now (3 months) as well as a loss of appetite and weight loss in the legs area. (I had gone to the dentist on the 8th week for a root canal treatment and was on antibiotics Dalacin C 300 for 8 days)
22 weeks: hair loss, mainly from my eyebrows and hair on my torso and stomach. Lasting till now (week 26)
As at today, I still have a white tongue, a loss of appetite and hair loss issues.
I have made STDs check and 7 HIV 1&2 tests all negative. My blood picture is normal. I have just noticed that my WBC and lymphocytes fluctuate within the normal range. I have also done a CD4 CD8 count and they were within the normal range.

What kind of infection could I have caught?
I have come across this new HIV like disease:

Should I be worried about this disease? Should I do an interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and a  quantative immunoglobin tests?
Thank you.

No but it can take up to months sometimes. You can get it soon as well. Sorry for not being more clear. No I'm sure it was the antibiotics that did it.

Thank you for your answer. Are you sure that it has to take 2 to 3 months after taking antibiotics to have candida or yeast? if so, so this means that the antibiotics I took have nothing to do with my current candida/yeast problem and white tongue?!!! I had never taken antibiotics before

Well, you should still take the probiotics, that will treat the Candida non-albcans or yeast problem. It looked like the last thing you had done had only a microscopic evaluation and it was only a low amount of yeast. But it won't hurt to take the probiotics. Usually, after taking antibiotics it takes 2-3 months to cause problems anyway such as yeast and knocking out your normal gut flora. So I would still get retested for your stool culure for both yeast (candida and non candida they are both yeast) and the E. histolytica One more time in about a month after you have taken the probiotics a while. but if you doctor wanted you take a sample for E. histo sooner you could do that and then recheck for the yeast in a month.

Ok, I see.
It sounds like you don't know what the present situation culture wise is for yeast. They just did a microscopic evaluation of the stool sample for yeast So, yes it is the same but it doesn't sound like you had as much of it. But I would get another culture done when  you see this doctor or see what he says. In the mean time do the probiotics and hopefully it will clear up. And, yes  it sounds like the parasite or E. histo is still gone. So, let me know how it goes. I think things are clearing up. I hope you start feeling better and your appetite starts coming back. I would retest for a stool culture in a weeks and make sure you get both the yeast (candida and non cadida) done plus the parasite test done. Also, if you have a choice have a routine stool culture done. See if everything is normal.

The Stool culture was done on the 10th of April as well, and got the results yesterday saying I have Candida Non albican.

Yesterday I did a atool analysis and got my results yesterday as well (Not culture) saying I have few yeast cells. no parasite was detected. which means that according to this single test i am E. histolytica free right?

So I still have yeast (candida) but I am normally cleared from E histolytica.

are the few yeast cells detected in my stool analysis of yesterday related to the Candida that I have?
