You were probably dehydrated, which makes it nearly impossible for someone to draw a blood sample. The next time you're due for bloodwork, you should make sure to be hydrated as much as possible because then your veins will be much easier to locate. In any case, there is nothing in your post that is remotely scary or HiV related so you have nothing to worry about.

hiv is not transmitted through environmental surfaces or inanimate objects.

"have some scary events:"-I thought you were going to talk about something that really is scary. Not something that is anxiety driven.

Seek a therapist to help you with your anxiety.

1. How would the virus get on the syring? Magically jump up?

2. No
