Avatar f tn Well, unfortunately, you can be contagious a few days to up to two weeks after a stomach bug. But usually it is 3 days. However, she may have had gastroenteritis, etc. which isn't contagious. I'd say you are in the clear but good hygiene to prevent illness is always a good idea.

Avatar n tn Hi Dr HHH, I'd posted a question a few months ago in regards to my daughter. She has a blood transfusion (4 units) and I was concerned about possible HIV exposure.

Avatar m tn I was on vacation last week and had sex with a stranger also on vacation. Unfortunately, the condom broke during intercourse. The following day I began feeling pain in my testicles (on/off during the day) but had no other pain. It went away the next day, but it does seem to come back every now and then for a small period of time. As a precaution, I went to a emergency testing clinic a week later (went I came back home) to get tested.

Avatar n tn Hello, Diarrhea and vomitings can be provoked either by an intestinal infection or by illness somewhere else in the body. When they begin suddenly, the problem is usually gastroenteritis (or stomach flu), most often caused by a virus and sometimes by bacteria and parasites. Gastroenteritis is an irritation and infection of the digestive tract. It can often cause sudden and sometimes violent upsets and may be confused with spastic colitis.

Avatar n tn I know that diabetes is not contagious but i just started going out with a girl who's got diabetes type I. She was diagnosed about two years ago and apparently, she had some viral infection that caused it. My question is: could she give me the same viral infection, which would cause my body to also develop diabetes. I've been really thirsty lately, weak and i go to the bathroom a lot. Could someone give me an insight. Thank you.
Avatar n tn However, while she had the gloves on, but before she touched me, she touched (1) a dildo, which she immediately put down when I told her I was not interested and (2) the tip of the massage oil bottle. Assuming that the dildo and massage oil bottle tip were exposed to HIV, would it be possible for her to then transfer that to me through the prostate massage (after she touched those items)? I'm concerned b/c 1 day after the massage, I became nauseous.
