Beyond scared please help!! HIV tests

[mattvrrt]

Hello I’m going to get right to the point. After a possible exposure to HIV I was tested multiples times. This is my story and I’m going to be as specific as I can be. So the exact day was October 12, but I know for sure that the sexual activity was in the am so it was passed 12am making it October 13th, 2019. That night I performed oral sex and unfortunately that night there was minimal penetration of unprotected anal sex. To be exact the tip of the head was a little inserted then he thrusted a little putting the tip halfway and I immediately got off because it was uncomfortable. I’m beyond afraid because that part was unprotected. We stopped and just continued to perform oral and kiss. That night nobody finished and it ended shortly. He left and we ended up not talking after a few weeks. It never dawned on me too get tested until about a month later after the experience I saw that I developed a hemorrhoid(that went away after applying preparation H). It was my first time ever and I trusted someone who said that they were negative and him professing that he would never lie about that. The thought of having something popped in my head and I started testing. At 5 weeks I was tested with the 4th generation test and it was negative, following that test I was tested at 8 weeks with the same test and it was negative as well. The 9th week from possible exposure I was tested for other stds and received a anal swab, which came back negative also. During that visit they performed a rapid test for hiv and it came back negative. At 12 weeks I took another 4th generation test again and received a negative. On the 13th week I was tested with a rapid test and it came out negative. That week the person I was with tested negative, but I’m not sure if that was really him that went to get the test done and I just feel as if he’s lying. He sent the results but I’m still unsure, during that time I found out that he lied about not being with someone since he was 14, so if he lied about those little details, I’m sure he would be lying about more important things like his STATUS!. On the 15th week from possible exposure I was tested again with a rapid test and it was negative. But with this situation it was a unopened kit but I’m afraid that maybe the testing kit was messed with by the HIV Counselor, anyways that test came back negative. On week 16 I was tested with a 4th generation lab test to ensure the 15th week result and it came back negative. I’m still scared that I may have it. Since October to now I’ve been a complete wreck. I’ve lost a ton of weight I’m anxious all the time and I feel like I may have something constantly. I’m beyond nervous that he’s lying and not telling the truth. I was negative at 4 months but I’ve heard of people taking 6 months or longer. I also have heard of people being seronegative and always showing negative on HiV tests. I’m severely scared and I need some advice please help!!! Should I get a RNA test done or more 4th generation tests? Please help

I think you are OCD.

You tested negative. You need to read up on blood sti's more. They say to wait 3 months for then to manifest in the patient.

You will be fine.

This will teach you to use protection. I rather head out and lose 20 mins of my time to find and purchase condoms, than contract HIV.

Look up PReP, they are drugs that you take to prevent getting HIV

I can assure you if you've done all what you said that you do not have HIV or the AIDS virus and from here on in you should always properly protect yourself wearing my suggestion Magnum condoms when rough riding with someone you don't know

Yes I was 100% truthful in my story. I tested again at 4 1/2 months close to 5 months and it was negative. I just keep hearing people say 6 months and it makes me sooo anxious

Trust me I've had a few health scares myself over the years dealing with women and the best thing that you can do when performing anal sex is to have someone wear a condom Magnum is the best brand

Should I still go for my last test?? My provider says that it’s not necessary but I just fear that my results could change in 6 weeks!!

[Syllabus18 in reply to mattvrrt]

I can assure you that you do not have HIV or Aids provided that you did not have anal sex unprotected with anyone else since the last incident in which you are stating there is no more need to keep scaring yourself or going to the doctor

Hey matt how are you! We really have the same story except my encounter was on nov 12. I’ve tested the samnumber of weeka you have. I still feel anxious too and I am waiting for one more month for it to be six months. But I’m feeling positive because everyone I’ve spoken to have told me it’s a 3 months window period. You can state hiv hotlines who can assure you as well.

Hello I just want to tell you that my doctor said 24 weeks is the same as 6 months. I just received my 23 week test and it was negative. I’m getting a rapid test at 24 weeks just for peace of mind. Everything is going to be okay. Private message me and I’ll give you my number so we can talk. I know that sometimes talking helps me. Let me know how it goes.
