Title: Need Reassurance
Post by: Nancy68 on July 02, 2008, 09:30:17 pm
Back in early 2005 I had unprotected sex with someone I picked up in bar.  In 2006 my husband and I decided to have a baby and of course I was tested for HIV and it was negative.  At the time of the pregnancy I was did not know the results of that test.  I know that may sound stupid but I never thought about being infected.  It wasn't until January of this year that these thoughts started coming into my mind.  I am having trouble getting rid of these thoughts so I decided to get tested and again the test came back negative.  From everything I have read I can not be HIV Positive.  But I have had the sore thorat off and on over the last few months, I have gotten unexplained inflammed hair follics on the back of my legs.  My doctor advised me to see a therapist to help with these thoughts, but they are still there.  Can some one put my mind at ease?

You are HIV negative as your testing history demonstrates  and your doctor is right, you should see a therapist.
