Current Events > I may have HIV

(+) Yeah! (+)

I made a topic on here a while ago talking about a very bad sexual experience I had where I basically was so repulsed by him and the environment that I nearly puked twice, and I had a panic attack during it so when he went in without protection, I didn't say no even though I wanted to just get up and leave. Absolutely nothing satisfying about it.

Seven days later, I have the exact symptoms of HIV seroconversion. Feverish feeling (even though I don't actually have a fever), fatigue, sore throat, muscle aches, and just generally feeling crappy. I took some ibuprofen which actually made me feel quite a bit better (which may be a good sign? Not sure), but I still feel off.

I know I have to get tested before I know for sure but the symptoms and timing match up perfectly. I'm so fucking stressed and angry right now, 1. How could he be so heartless as to infect me and 2. I feel so fucking pissed at myself for letting my anxiety get the better of me and not just saying no to him

I don't know wtf to do if I am infected. I can't afford the treatment at least until I graduate college next year, and the treatment will completely eat up my income even when I do have a larger income.

Ugh

You're panicking without even knowing if it is, go get tested first.

Also, stop fucking with people you hardly know. It's stupid.

This. Do not stress until you know exactly whats going on

Noone to blame but yourself.

Those are all also symptoms of pretty common illnesses, relax and get tested

Um isn't it supposed to take months before symptoms or even test results can show if you have it?

Don't you have to wait like a couple weeks before it shows up on a test. So TC might have to wait a bit longer before finding if he does. But he could take Prep just in case if he thinks he may have been infected within 72 hours.
