PLz HELP
(before her just one partner) i had unprotected sex (may 12th ) with a female for like 3 mins then we stopped. at 2 weeks post exposure i was then treated for chlamydia which i caught from her. before knowing it was chlamydia i was put on bactrium which i took twice a day for 5 days then i stopped n took a 1g azthromycin after finding out it was chlamydia .
then i thought i should get a std test for herpes and syphlis and hiv at 4 weeks..which were all negative.
no fever that i kno of... how ever i did have a white tongue for 2/3 weeks, hives that would come and go ..1-3 a day very small for almost a week.., gassy stomach and would often pass gass. i went to test at 8 weeks for hiv and they said to come back becuase it was too early and wouldnt be covered by my insurance so soon. i have always had scaly skin on my legs n lower back that looks like the fish skin disease... but now it seems like its spreading... or my skin is just always like this and im over checking my self... after being infection how long would the average person develop xerosis.. or anything that would cause my skin to look cracked..
not sure if that what it is but im very paranoid

can i show you a picture of this rash on my back? i know you said its to late for symptoms but i have always had scaly skin but now its dark and look as if its spreading
my lymph nodes in my groin area are also swollen but i also found out i have bacteria in my urine so they now have me taking nitrofurantoin mono/mac ...
could this be the reason for my swollen nodes ?

how accurate is my negative finger prick test at 4 weeks ? i went for any test at 8 weeks and the told me to wait
Xerosis is not ARS symptom that occurs in people recently infected with HIV. Skin conditions are not common too. Just take DUO or Combo test anytime from now and you will know your status.
after being infection how long would it take the average person to develop xerosis.. or any skin problems
