So I can be very confident I dont have HIV? It's been so long almost 2 years since the event happened. I just need to know that the clinician performed the test and interpreted it accurately. Is there any reason not to believe they didnt do it right? I would very much like move on and leave this behind me Im just scared to get tested again because it's scary. I dont have any proof that the condom broke, he told me it didnt. I dont want to get scared intensely that I have HIV every time I get a new symptom.View Thread

I just get scared again whenever Iget a new cold sore in a new place on my lip, not just on the border of my lip. I'm afraid my health is low and that's why they're popping up in new places. When I dont have any symptoms I'm OK and not really nervous. I also think about the clinic I had it done at. I didnt receive any pretest counseling and they didnt say how long to wait until the test is accurate. I remember someone askin me questions when I arrived about if I ever got tested forHIV before and general info about me. I just hope that they kew what they were doing and that I'm truly negative.View Thread

Ok, so I can trust the test I took by a medical professional? I think I read about the orasure test that had false results. I get scared thinking I have it because I compare everyday situations like computer technology error to my test result. I dont trust people really, so I have to take the counselor's word that I'm neg, I didnt see the test for myself she just told me.View Thread

I had a rapid HIV test done but the person doing my test didn't ask me anything, he just took blood and told me theyll call me later for the results. After about 20 min, someone called my number and told me it was negative from a computer screen. I'm just afraid that it's not accurate because I was tested 3 years ago with a rapid that was negative and maybe they didnt update my current status because it was already in my confidential record? Or I think they told me it was negative even if it wasnt because I was so nervous.
Everytime I get sick I go back to these fears and I think of when I had swollen lymph nodes, fever and body aches 10 days after the event.
I just cant move on from this and Im scaredView Thread

I'm sorry but I am very curious to why my cold sores on my bottom lip have increased and my lower gums hurt a litte bit. The last time this happened was 10 days after my event, I went to the dentist she said it was by the herpes virus and both time have occurred right when my period started. I've never had this kind of thing before. I'm just worried about the possible reasons for this. It looks a lot like gingivostomatitis.View Thread

My risk was intercourse with ejaculation but inside a condom, also a few moments of unprotected insertion but NO ejaculation. I have just recently been suffering from it seems herpes liabilis and haven't had as many cold sores at once on my lip before. I was wondering and scared why this was happening.View Thread

I had protected intercourse over two months ago with a condom. He pulled out and showed me the condom which was intact with semen inside. There were brief moments before when he was inside without one on but did not ejaculate. About 10 days later i had strep throat symptoms and went to the doctor and she gave me amoxicillin and the symptoms went away in a few days. I am just very worried that I may have caught HIV. I am worried that the condom might have torn or something.View Thread
