Still, I will go get tested with antibody and PCR DNA. Please, pray for me. It is my birthday Thursday and I want to enjoy my life again...
HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child
Really, Teak??? I am SO worried! I am turning 27 soon and want to enjoy my birthday and life!
Hi guys, I am back. I have had like 8 partners since my last test- NO ANAL. BUT, guys have ejaculated in my mouth, fingered me, and laid on top of me with their penis on top of my butt crack.
Am I at risk?!
Thank you very much, Nurse.
You never had an exposure and what do the words''negative'' mean on your test paper?It means you don't have HIV now move on.
Results in! Can someone advise?
HIV-1 Antibody <1.00 <1.00 Negative
HIV 1/O/2 Abs, Qual Non Reactive Non Reactive Negative
HIV-1 DNA Negative - Negative
Also, I have a stomach bug, nausea, diarrhea, chills, is this ARS?
Teak, Lizzie, Nurse, pray for me. Please.
Thanks, Teak. I sure hope you are right.
You do not have an HIV concern.
Thanks. I went for a PCR test with combination antibody. Pray for me, please. I hope I can relax this Thanksgiving and enjoy my life with my family!
You would have known.Go have an STD screen but no need to test for HIV.
um.... hello? also, 6 men in 1 month. that's the total.
WHAT IF A PENIS WENT INSIDE ME AND I DID NOT KNOW IT?!?!?!!
So getting fingered even after the guy has touched his penis is NOT a risk, Teak? A penis actually has to go INSIDE OF MY ANUS for HIV transmission to take place?
You never had an exposure. Go read your posting history.
If you are not sure, and it was really an unprotected penetration by him (regardless of the duration), get yourself tested. Next time, keep alcohol away from sex,,, they do not mix well
I would recommend seeking some professional help. Your member name indicates you have OCD, and your posts describe a lot of "what if" thinking, which is consistent with anxiety/OCD.
You're aware that the only sexual act that will place you at risk is unprotected anal sex, which you clearly acknowledge not engaging in. That's all you need to do to keep yourself free of HIV.
