Listen to your doctor, you're negative. You do know that you can prevent these worries by using a condom and plenty of water base lube?

You've reliably tested negative for HIV. Period. End of story.

This is all about anxiety and perhaps guilt. Get over it. Period.

Right now you are thinking it will never happen again. And I am not saying that it will. But should you have intercourse with someone other than your partner, whether anal or vaginal, make sure you use a latex condom everytime. No exceptions. Condoms provide very effective protection against HIV transmission.

This time out you have made it through safely as far as HIV is concerned.

Cheers,
Andy Velez

ex,

You do not have hiv. Please work with your doctor to discover what, if anything, is wrong with you. You have ruled hiv out of the picture and it's time you turned your attention elsewhere.

You ARE hiv negative.
