Avatar f tn Does anyone know of a knowledgeable doctor near the Richmond, VA area that knows how to treat the autoimmune part of Hashimoto. I've been to several doctors in the Williamsburg area that only treat the thyroid after the damage has been done.

Avatar m tn On Sept 20/21 - just over 14 days ago I engaged in mostly protected vaginal sex with a 24 yr old African American woman from VA Beach. I say mostly because the condom slipped off momentarily at one point. I would guess for no longer than a min at most. As soon as I realized this, I put on a new condom. We also engaged in unprotected oral, giving and receiving. From what the docs here used to say heterosexual transfer during a one time encounter was quite unlikely.
148588 tn?1465778809 Black leaders have condemned the Russian efforts in the 2016 election cycle that apparently sought to divide African-Americans both from whites and from each other, but nothing about those efforts is new. Russian and Soviet influence-mongers have spent decades pressing as hard as they can on the most painful areas of the American body politic, from the days of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to the current era of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Avatar n tn Hello Dr.'s, I am hoping to make a really long story, short. I was with my EX boyfriend for 6 years, we broke up this year in January. I heard 2 weeks after our break-up that he was HIV +... He is African American, and I am half white and half African American. Ok... here's the story bulleted 1. Last unprotected sex exposure to him was on Jan. 4th 2008. Him and I always had unprotected, but my very last time with him was that EXACT date. 2.
Avatar m tn As I said, test results rule, and your results show that HIV isn't the cause of these symptoms. They are not suggestive of HIV anyway. Bottom line: Trust your current test results; don't have any more HIV tests; and in the future choose your sex partners carefully and always used condoms.
1711722 tn?1356487554 Thanks for this. I did not know that the new PI's sort of leveled the playing field, as it were for those who may possibly not have the "good configuration" of the IL28B gene. Still, if I don't clear the virus on Triple Therapy I am going to be tested.

Avatar f tn Hi, I am 12 wks pregnant this week and I have not had a relaxer in my hair since before Christmas 2014. I was wondering if/when you African American moms have used a relaxer during your pregnancy journey? My hair is naturally curly so I'm not running around looking like Chewbacca or anything (lol =]) but I guess my question is how safe is it to get a relaxer and did it affect the grade of your hair?
645800 tn?1466860955 But with me one of my issues is being around people as I was assaulted by 6 African American sailors while in the Navy. Most of this I don't remember except that at one point I was on the ground with all of them standing over and around me with one holding a night stick which they had used on me. When I get too many people around me I have a flash back to that moment. It is especially bad if there are any African American men among the people around me.
