dry blood

It first started off with my sisters friend camping over at my place, long story short I stole a used thong from her backpack when she wasn't at my place and and smelled her thong while I was in the bedroom where the lights were shut off. As I turned on the light to see what color her thong was I noticed dry blood on the crotch part of her thong!. I am worried now that I contracted hep c or something because she is known for sleeping around and using drugs. I also had a couple of scratches on my fingers that were still open so now I am worried that her dry blood on her thong touched my open cuts and now I have hep c. Please help what should I do??should I go for a hep c test or am I just having a serious case of ocd.

BTW, Other than the perp possibly sporting a tent - I don't think this was a real camping trip. If it was there would have been banjo music.

lock all my doors

Jeezy-weezy. After the front and the back, how many more doors you got?

I think OCD is the least of all of your problems but you do need a doctor, I just don't think a heptologist is the right type. I can't believe I even had to read this it reminds me to lock all my doors and never go camping again.

I agree with Goof.

I'd be more concerned about catching Hepatitis A from the skid mark.

This is an HCV forum, the perv forum would probably offer you a lot of support. It is highly unlikely for you to contract HCV from the thong in this manner. Thong sniffing has lower then a 1% chance of infecting someone, and the thong would have to be from Fredericks of Hollywood or Victoria Secret and contain at least a hint of lace. I don't think a plain satin black thong would qualify.

Take care and don't worry, you will be okay!

The color of her thong was a silky satin black lol. I know I am a pervert but I was just worried about contracting hep c from her after I found out she had blood on her thong.

Relax. What you think was dried blood was more likely a skid mark.

The obvious question: What color was the garment?

Trinity, you are funny.  "Well that's what you get for sticking your nose where it doesn't belong"
You had me rolling on the floor.  

I guess this is why they sometimes call us guys dogs, we are always stiffing around :-)

The answer to your question is no.  Firstly, you are assuming she has hepc but you cannot validate that. Hepc is a blood borne pathogen.  The infected persons blood must enter your bloodstream and small scratches coming in contact with dried blood is certainly not a high risk exposure.  Actually I think it would be almost impossible.

So now you're experiencing anxiety huh?  Well that's what you get for sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.

You said thong snorting is not a way to contact hcv....but what about the dry blood on the thong that I touched with my open cuts???. I don't know why I wanted to see the color of the thong in the first place I am just a weirdo I guess??

Thong snorting is not away to contact HCV..... Curious though what did the color of the thong matter to you.
