Brief Answer:
Your anxiety levels are hing and you need to relax
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. It is true that oral sex is not the method of HIV transmission and I agree to what my colleague has earlier told you.
2. HIV virus is a weak virus once it is out of the body. In the air it can die within 10 seconds to a minute and it is unlikely that the blood in the toilet seat had any virus.
3. Your anxiety is understandable and I reassure you that there is no serious concern from the incidents mentioned in the last 6 months.
4. Please relax, talk to friends, go out and meet your loved ones, read a good book, listen to music and reduce your stress. You must eat well to stay healthy. Your HIV results will surely be negative and you have not done any sin. Just be sure to ask your partner to have a condom on whenever you have oral or vaginal sex.
5. It is usual to get anxious and stressed out before getting the results and many of my patients have these symptoms. You are not infected and please relax and go to receive your test results.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
Regards,
Dr.Vivek

Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.

Brief Answer:
Please apply ointment over shoulder and take rest
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
1. If you remember that the shoulder pain appeared after carrying the drawers or doing exercises then it is possible that the there might be a muscle spasm causing the mild pain. This kind of pain stays for 3 to 4 days and disappears on its own and even movements are painful. You can try applying an ointment or spray containing pain reliever and muscle relaxant over it. Using a hot pack also helps. Please avoid heavy physical work and exercises for a week.
2. To clear your doubts on any chest problem, it is better to get a chest X ray done and know that your lungs are clear. If you have done a chest X ray recently within last 6 months then there is no need to do it again.
3. The turbinate surgery and drip can cause sore throat. Also doing hookah too often can lead to throat irritation. When you are having sore throat then please avoid doing hookah.
4. The burping and gas problem can be controlled by taking few small meals at frequent intervals. Avoid taking large meals containing oily food and spices. Eat good amount of fruits and vegetables and sit up straight for 30 minutes after dinner so that you do not have acidity or burping when you sleep.
5. For sore throat you can also try doing salt water gargle twice a day for a week when sore throat happens. This will keep you comfortable.
Hope your query is answered.
