Sore throat STD ???
After an unprotected std scare I got std tested at 9 days all negative and then tested at 5 weeks 3 days for HIV(4th gen) and syphilis both negative. I still have this burning sore throat. (Been nearly 3 weeks now) been taking penicillin but it has had no effect 5 days from taken them. Back of my throat has lots of white blotches on it. Again I don't feel tied or particularly sick but my throat is on fire none stop. Any idea what it might be. ( concerning me due to my std exposure 7 weeks ago now. Could a sore throat like this starting 4 weeks after exposure be down to any std's? I didn't give or receive oral, only partial kissing)
Glad you don't. Thanks again. It's people like you that make these early months with issues over potential std's bearable. Can't thank you enough. Well I've got 8 week tests this week so will get them done, go and see my GP about my throat. Hopefully get 8 week tests all clear next week and move on from this challenging experience.
