Ringworm?
hello everyone ,just a quick update i had unprotected intercourse almost 14 weeks ago . im gonna get tested soon i tested negative at 6 weeks 1 day, now my nodes in my neck are swollen somewhat i have a red ring patch on my back which looks like ringworm!!!! is ringworm a sign of early hiv?? and would my nodes start swelling at 14 weeks??? any help would be great
Jesus, everything's a connection with HIV. Next I'll be hearing that hangnails and pimples are symptoms (before everyone freaks, I JUST MADE THAT UP. Sorry if I fed anyone's paranoia). The truth is, just about anything COULD be connected to HIV infection, but probably isn't. Generally speaking, *anything* else is far more likely. Think of it this way, if you get a nosebleed, are you going to think you have ebola?
But seriously, are you sure about the tick bite? Does this ring look like a bullseye? Deer tick nymphs are really tiny, and you might have missed it... If lyme disease is at all a possibility where you live, you might want to get it checked out.

Thanks for the reassurence, i have said before i hope i am not the one who tested at 6 weeks negative only to turn positive later. i dont think that has happened especially from what i have read on this forum. i will keep u posted , wish me luck!!!
no the spot on my back came on gradually over a period of weeks . ive put every cream you can imagine. im scared just like all of you, if you look it up ringworm is a connection with hiv.(sin problems) but i didnt think it woud happen so soon .i was just wanting to find out if anyone knew a connection between the two thanks
No as far as i know ring worm or anything of that sort isnt a sort of ARS... relax
and yeah ARS DO NOT COME ON SO LATE.as u say at 14 weeks.. its between 2-4 weeks THATS IT.
6 weeks is virtually conclusive according to DR.HHH ...Rest on u ...
ur 12-13 weeks result WILL NOT CHANGE... if u are thinking to take 1.
Chill!!

Know what ringworm's a sign of? Ringworm!
You don't have HIV, but I'm sure you won't rest until you test again. So go test already... and while you're there, you can ask about the red ring on your back. Oh--quick thought, you didn't get a tick bite, did you?
