Thank you for responding to my post. I replied to your comment with another comment, it's my first time using this site, so my apologies.

Unprotected vaginal sex. I started freaking out after noticing bumps at the back of my throat, which the doctor said was normal and almost everyone has them, I just didn't notice them before. Still, I was paranoid. I found out I had Bacterial Vaginosis and was given a medication, and after taking the medication I got a yeast infection from it. I was also given a shot for gonorrhoea and chlamydia, which I did not have. Crazy thing is, after all these shots and medication, my teeth and nail was affected, which made me more convince I had hiv. Forward to June 2017 while I was taking Monistat for the yeast infection, I got severe itching on the lip of my vagina which turned into a sore. The site went away after one week. Currently, I saw rashes on the same spot of my vagina and also on my buttocks. The sores on my buttocks started out as white water pumps and then turned into sores. I also felt a pain on the left side of my tongue, after looking closely, it appears to be an extremely small bump. This is all after I tested negative for HIV in March. I am convince I have hiv and it didn't show on the test.
My nails has changed drastically. Vertically lines in my nails and they are slowly lifting from the nail bed. For the past few days, I had pain in my right groin area. My ear also feels like I have air in it that won't clear up. I tested at the six months mark, and I am certain my negative test was a mistake. Now I am scared to do another test.
Your tests were conclusive that you don't have HIV so you can move on. You are probably over-analyzing your body because you are in fear since your question indicates that you doubt the test results.
More repeated testing for a disease that you are negative for will be abnormal, so you might consider therapy for your HIV phobia instead. Likely more tests will not convince you that you are negative since the first ones didn't. Therapy is a better option because they might be able to hep you understand the science is 40 years old and well proven, whereas you have no medical training so you need to accept the science.

Everyone here posts that they have ARS but so far none of them do, so try to relax and accept that you don't have ARS. You need to discuss any medical concerns with your doctor but they have nothing to do with HIV so they aren't part of this forum.

I researched al my symptoms and they are consistent with the HIV virus. Especially the yeast infection that won't go away and sores.
Reread the part about the 40 instead of thinking you can be a Google doctor.
As stated by anxiousnomore, hiv is not diagnosed by symptoms.  Your negative tests indicate your HIV status as not having HIV.  We do wish you the best and are closing this discussion.
