Thanks...i sure do appreciate all that everyone of you do!
Joggen, I have been having anxiety about this for at least 10 years and posting for the last 5 or so, how come I never got an invite?????? lol!
Seek a therapist, again we can't help with anxiety and guilt here. That is why there is a profession that helps people with those issues.
buddy , trust me, I have been going through this fear of hiv for 10 years, if you had protected sex , then you are safe and so is your wife. I was the same way, going to my DR for answers and believe me , they can tell when you have high anxiety, thats why he told you to get tested , to relieve your anxiety and stress so you will stop seeing him for no reason. Listen to Vance as well as Teak, Lizzie Lou or NurseGirl, they are experts and know what they are talking about, and listen to me when I tell you this, if you dont combat the anxiety, it will ruin your life.
I just cant shake the fear....it was drunken spur of the moment thing...he seemed sober....i asked when the last time he was tested and he said a month a ago and he said he had nothing but i didnt specifically ask him about hiv cause i thought he knew what i was talking about...found the condom laying outside where we had sex the next day and it seemed to be ok with no holes...it was dark outside....im just freaking out. Can anyone put this into more perspective please???
Sorry but we can't help you with anxiety.
Well why am i so anxious about it then...i was drunk i remember the condom he put on but i dont know if it stayed on the whole time....i.seem to remember him pulling it off when we were done but im just scared ashell
..
Are you not reading or understanding advice given to you?
No risk means no reason to test.
So ive gotta go through all this anxiety for 3 or 4 months before i know something???
Already answered that with my 1st answer.
In your opinion would this warrant testing? Doctor says that he doubts i have it but said to test anyway...dont know if this is to relieve my anxiety or what
Ask your Dr, I can't speak for him.
But why is my doctor telling me to get retested for this particular event in 3-4 months? I was pretty drunk and i do remember him putting a condom on me and remember seeing that condom the next day and it was in tact. I cant understand why my doctor would want me to get tested for this if its safe sex?
You had protected sex, condom work. No risk.
