I was in my girls school’s toilet when my keys fell into the toilet. The toilet had toilet paper and probably pee and period blood(?). I then went and picked it up. The sad thing was, I had a small wound on my hand that was half closed (although I am not even sure it touched the water). I then washed my hands and the keys 5 times. Then I sanitized my hands 5 times. I’m have been really worried ever since that, even though my teacher and friends told me it was fine.
My symptoms:
2 weeks after “infection”
- Flu like symptoms that got better after 1 day, instead of the mentioned one week
3 weeks after “infection”
- Sore throat (mild, more like a discomfort)
- After eating crisps, a small bump on the inside skin of my cheek (thought it was a cranker sore, but when I touched and squeezed it, it disappeared)
- Temperature of 37.1
I am REALLY worried and am dying on the inside. Should I take a HIV test? And how do I tell my mom I want to take a HIV test (I didn’t tell my mom what would happened because she would panic). Do you think I should ask for a total blood count test, which doesn’t sound suspicious, and then if I *am* infected, I will probably have a high White blood cell count, and if the doctors notice this, they will probably refer me to a HIV test.
