- She had some dry scar or white rash at ribs near neck and may be by mistake i have touched from my hand or lips.

My test Results

Now The important Point:

3 weeks back I went to XXXXXXX and got wet during the rains. Next Day I got fever/flu (Full Body Pain , temp in between 102-103 F , cough & Shivering , red dots at lower leg from last Wednesday ( 10-08-2017 till 14-08-2017). After medications (Paracetamol) fever has gone but still cough is persistent.
Now major complications :



1) After fever went , from till now I am not experiencing appetite and lost weight of 2 kg in 10 days.However gain the apetite after 20 days of fever
2) Feeling very weak ,light headiness , blurr & weak vision.
3.) Now days If eating anything , than rushing to motions every time but nothing coming out. Feeling tightness & gas inside stomach.
4) yesterday onwards getting rash on both side of legs and its itching alot. Even feeling itching across body.
5) Not able to sleep properly.
6) Feeling hot in body and slight cold on nose.
"I would like to share that during my multiple test till 7.5 months , i had multiple sexual intercourse with my Wife in between " Does it considered as exposure or not as in multiple sites its mentioned no sexual exposure during the tests."

I) doctor is such body syptoms are anything to do with STD's or its normal, I hope test upto 6 months are conclusive??
2) Even after 7.5 months negative hiv antibody test and kind of exposure , should i still worry about hiv or any other STD.
3) sexual exposure with wife will create any impact on test results or not ?
4) is the loss of appetite , blurr vision , weight loss after fever , fatigue and all such physical discomfort all are anyways related to is sign of hiv symptoms or anxiety?

Brief Answer:
You are absolutely safe and free from HIV.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mxxxxxxxxxs,

Welcome to HCM.

The exposure you had mentioned is not at all risky as far as HIV and other STDs are concerned because you had not done any penetrative sex and the test results for HIV, HBsAg, VDRL, Herpes, Chlamydia all are non reactive after 120 days which is considered 100% conclusive and confirmatory so you need not to worry for HIV as you are absolutely safe and risk free.

Fever, fatigue, weight loss, loss of appetite and all other symptoms might be due to some other bacterial or viral infection but not related to HIV. Consult your physician, go for some investigations like blood counts, ESR, X-ray etc. to isolate the cause and follow the treatment regime as per expert advice. Allay the fear or anxiety, don't think much about HIV and move on in life. For any further query feel free to ask me again.

Thank You

Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for the details i have still two major worries where i need your help-

Before every test at 15, 51 ,120 and 210 days , I had physical pleasures with my wife couple of days or week before test date. DOes it create any imapact on test results, since in most websites its mention no another exposure before test? Is it considered as exposure or not?

Second - whys i am geeting rash and very mild night sweats now on my legs photo attached.

Third - How to rest my mind since everyday some sort of issues are appearing in my body.

Brief Answer:
It is not considered as exposure.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mxxxxxxxxxs,

Welcome to HCM once again.

Doing physical pleasures with your wife is not an exposure and rashes might be due to some allergy or skin infection but not related to HIV so close the chapter here, forget about the episode and move on in life. If still you are not feeling relaxed then I advice you to consider counseling services. If any other query is there feel free to ask me again.
