sleepless night, !! dono what has to be done o overcome!!
Brief Answer:
Condom break not always result in HIV. Reduce you fear for the same.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.
I can understand your concern for possibility of HIV after the incidence. I can get from your query that you have undergone CD4 counts on 5/3/2015 which are quite normal.
The feeling of tiredness and loss of weight are quire vague symptoms and more so appears to be related to anxiety only. Condom break not always result in HIV so reduce you fear for the possibility of HIV.
Even then to guide you best regarding your situation I request you to kindly elaborate certain points:
- Since how long back you have had this incidence (Kindly tell me in days).
- How long the complete sexual act lasted after penetration.
- Did you noticed condom break immediately as soon as it torn off or after the completion of the act.
- Have you gone for any test other than CD4 count.
Hope to hear soon from your side.
"Wish you good health"

Brief Answer:
There are negligible chances of HIV. Calm down and do not worry.
Detailed Answer:
Dear young fellow,
Welcome back and thanks a lot for your details.
After analyzing the complete situation let me reassure you again that there are negligible chances or to say frankly hardly any chance of acquiring the infection. It is because of the fact that the intercourse lasted only for 2 minutes which is quite less of the time to get the infection.
You didn't performed the act again after the condom break so the further chance is zero. The fear is just because of the fact that you have predicted that lady to be HIV positive. If you assume that the other person is HIV infected then there are equal chances of her negative status also.
Even if you are worried then the best test is RNA PCR after 8 days from now. You should not go for any other test as would not be reliable as per the time sequence. Just calm your nerves for a week and do not worry. As per my experience the test should come negative.
I hope this information will help you. If you have further queries I will be happy to help.

Brief Answer:
Don't give any second thoughts about HIV.
Detailed Answer:
Dear young buddy,
Welcome back and thanks for your further follow up.
Tiredness is basically related to anxiety and negative thoughts. So once you will come out of your negative thoughts, the feeling of being tired will also get better.
If you think there are chances of the possibility of HIV then there is no possibility of the same. It is because the fact that half of the knowledge is quite dangerous. I quite often counsel your kind of cases where the person is totally panicky about HIV. It is because of the fact that more they read, more is the stress regarding the situation.
I suggest you to divert your mind totally from the possibility of HIV. Don't give any second thoughts about HIV infection. I am just besides you to clear all your doubts. I further reassure you that your test will come negative as per my experience.
I hope these informations will relax your mind. I will be glad to answer any further queries.

Brief Answer:
Eat healthy and do some workouts with positive thoughts in your mind.
Detailed Answer:
Hello young buddy,
Welcome back and thanks for your furtehr follow up.
In my opinion there is no need of taking any anti-oxidant tablets in terms of any sexaully transmitted infection. For general health benefits one can take for few weeks but not for a period of 6 months.
The rest of the related symptoms of itching and bad taste are basically anxiety related. It is better to keep yourself occupied with some work and do not sit alone. DO not pay any attention on these signs. You will yourself see that once the test will be negative, you yourself will feel vanishing of all these symptoms and signs.
Eat healthy and do some workouts or morning/evening walks along with positive thoughts in your mind.
I hope these informations will relax your mind. I will be glad to answer any further queries.

Brief Answer:
The RNA PCR test can be done after just couple of days.

But even then it is better to go ahead with test so that you can get completely assured about your good health status. I can very well understated your part of anxiety for the same.
It is not unusual to get panicky after such kind of situation and anyone can get terrified after such incidence.

So just calm down yourself and do not worry.

Detailed Answer:
Dear young fellow,
Welcome back and thanks a lot for your further follow up.
Fungal infections are one of the most common infections on genital area and can be very well treated. Though we can have simple rash resulting from heat, humidity or environmental causes. But over all if it is fungal infection too then can be simply treated with anti-fungal creams such as clotrimazole or ketoconazole.
The relative feeling of loss of strength and other of the symptoms are just due to lot of anxiety in previous few days. It is quite common to find such kind of feeling after these kind of incidences and lot of thinking towards the same.
I reassure you fully that as soon as you will come out of all the anxiety, you will feel quite better.
Just do not think about this incidence and get ahead with your routine life.

Brief Answer:
Most commonly this type of presentation is in fungal infections.
Detailed Answer:
Dear young fellow,
Welcome back and thanks for your swift follow up.
Most commonly this type of presentation is in fungal infections. These initially causes mild to moderate irritation and then flaking of skin with reddish- brown areas.
For the betterment kindly follow the suggestion below:
- Keep your self away from hot and humid climate.
- Take two times bath.
- Wear cotton clothes and cotton undergarments to be changed two times a day. Do not wear any synthetic or tight garments.
- Do cold compression or warm water compresses according to the weather condition.
- Do not sit continuously for long hours.
- In my patitnets I suggest them to apply an anti-fungal cream such as "Clotrimazole" or "Sertaconazole" or "Amorolfine ".
- For the irritation one can take oral anti histamine like loratadine or levocetrizine two times a day under medial advise if there is moderate to severe itching is present.
-Don't try to scratch or rub the area as can lead to further aggravation of the problem.
- You can use any good antiperspirant powders daily to avoid future infection.
You can follow the above regimen for 3-4 days and if benefit occurs can follow the same for next 10-14 days. If it still persists then can go for personalized examination by a dermatologist.
I hope above information will help you. If you have further queries I will be happy to help.
