Hiv positive chat
Common Questions and Answers about Hiv positive chat
hiv
I had my first test back, and it was HIV positive. the doctor now is looking to see how bad i have it (CD4). i will also go back to thailand where i assume i got HIV and will set up an appointment with a good hospital there to review.
my question - how do i begin living with this disease? what forums are there? i want to chat with real people and not statistics provided by Doctors. i know there is still a stigma on HIV. tks.
Firstly, HIV and Gonorrhea and HPV "Warts" are three totally separate STD's. Gonorrhea and warts (HPV) are much more common and easy to transmit than HIV. What makes you think that because you have contracted two, you will automatically contract the other? The chances are great that the person was NOT HIV POSITIVE. Even on the off chance, the person was HIV POSITIVE, they can pass one or two of the above without passing the other.
How soon after a sexual encounter can one get an HIV test? I was tested three weeks afterwards and my results were negative. I heard that 90% of those who were infected would test positive at this point. I will get tested again but wanted to know how much confidence I can have in this result. I had protected oral sex three and a half weeks ago and am feeling muscle aches, diarrhea, headaches and slight fever.
No doctor says that, because it isn't true.
m gay) I met him trough chat and I asked him if he was HIV neg and stds free and he said yes so we did oral sex,mutual masturbation and kissing nothing more. At the end I was on top of him and he cummed on my *** ( he never penetrated me) then I stayed on that position until I finished and the we went to the shower and cleaned my self.
Thank you for reassuring words.
First off, take comfort in the fact that the people at the clinic told you you have almost a ZERO chance of getting it even if the person was HIV positive. You also had protected sex, so the people on the HIV Prevention Forum have probably told you not to worry. I know it is easier said than done, especially when we are worried about our health! Keep us posted!
Your exposure was not high risk at all,infact I doubt you have become infected.The HIV DNA by PCR is a viral load test to monitor people who already have HIV so that test was virtually useless.The RNA on the other hand would have been are more solid test and more reliable.If I was in your shoes I would take the HIV DUO test at 28 days because it's very accurate at that time frame.
Has there ever been an incident on this forum where someone came back and said they were positive for HIV after being told they had no risk. I'm sure the posibility is there if someone isn't completely honest about their exposure or they posibly were already infected and didn't know it until they were tested for the exposure that had them worried here. I'm just wondering if it has ever happened to your knowledge? If so, did they describe experiencing ars?
Is there a chat room? I need to be able to "talk" when I can't sleep. Somehow the loneliness in the wee hrs of the night is very troublesome. Would help to know that I'm not alone in my wakefullness.
