Hiv

[Loubbis]

It has been worse. I’m so afraid that it could be hiv rash, but I don’t know how I should have get it .

If you have had protected sex , then you should not be at risk of HIV. You have also tested negative. Did you have a syphilis check ?

[Loubbis in reply to Galen70]

No, I didn’t test for syphilis. But does it look like hiv rash?

[Galen70 in reply to Loubbis]

As replied to in other posts - no.

[Loubbis in reply to Galen70]

Ok. I’m so stressed out.

[Galen70 in reply to Loubbis]

That is why I was explaining above. If you have protected sex - the chance of picking up HIV should be extremely low. I see you live in Norway - the rate of HIV in the population in Norway is low.

[Loubbis in reply to Galen70]

Ok. Maybe I was near a needle that a hiv person used or something and got it because those things on my over body doesn’t look good

Go get the test done, that’s the only way to know for sure, there’s a lot of things that cause rashes so hiv aint the only one. I’m telling you bc I went tru the same ish 2 months ago and it had me stressed asf

[Loubbis in reply to lamelo]

Yes, but I haven’t had sex.

I have had HIV since the mid 80s and fairly active in the HIV scene. I am in the states. Until I joined here with sciatica a issue I have never heard anyone worry that a rash was hiv.Please do not fear getting tested.FEAR not knowing. If I can ever help or offer advice. Anyone feel free to ask!

[Loubbis in reply to wizard43830]

I have so anxiety. I don’t have other symptoms and I didn’t have sex.

[wizard43830 in reply to Loubbis]

Yes the current world situation doesn't help anxiety prone individuals live life any easier. Good luck in your journey.

[Loubbis in reply to wizard43830]

Thanks. Do You think I have hiv?

[wizard43830 in reply to Loubbis]

My thoughs would tend to lean to you not having HIV . Is it hard to get tested in your part of the world.?

[Loubbis in reply to wizard43830]

Yes. Its around 120 new hiv positives per year or less. So the doctors are very strict about who they will test. But since the picture about my finger looks like needle or syringe injury stick I got stressed.
