Do I Have HIV? / Re: Urgent question
« Last post by Jim Allen on April 22, 2024, 03:03:53 pm »
Hiya.

You did not give your son HIV.



Here's what you need to know to reduce your HIV risks:
Use condoms for anal or vaginal intercourse correctly and consistently, with no exceptions. Consider talking to your healthcare provider about PrEP as an additional layer of protection against HIV

Keep in mind that some sexual practices described as safe in terms of acquiring HIV still pose a risk for other easier-acquired STIs. So please do get tested at least yearly for STIs, including but not limited to HIV, and more frequently if condomless intercourse occurs.

Also, note that it is possible to have an STI and show no signs or symptoms; testing is the only way to know.

Kind regards

Jim

Do I Have HIV? / Urgent question
« Last post by Boyj48175 on April 22, 2024, 02:59:20 pm »
Hello and thank you for this forum. I have a strange and pressing question... I am married and had a first-time encounter at a bachelor party with CSW, and unfortunately, the condom broke, so I l came out immediately. I'm in a window period and waiting to get tested.

Of course, I didn't tell anything to my wife, and I won't have sex with her until 6 weeks pass and I get tested. A strange incident happened when I was holding my two-and-a-half-year-old boy in my arms, and he accidentally scratched me deeply in my nose with his fingernails, causing a lot of bleeding. I saw that he put his hand in his mouth afterward, and I'm under immense stress. Is there a chance that if I caught something, it could pass to him?

                     ojo.                 Hell numbers, if you knew how many times I felt like you after seeing a lab work result was mistake And they way I felt,



          @numberguy82…I didn’t mean “hell numbers” when I tried to type (dictating) Wes hello numbers because I forgot your user’s name, but, as Leatherman says, numbers are numbers and sometimes we had to get them checked if they come back bad, then we worry about it and check West next to solve the problem.


Ps. again, I’m sorry for the typos, when I post I use the dictation of my cell phone.

Do I Have HIV? / Re: Blood Draw
« Last post by Jim Allen on April 22, 2024, 08:36:31 am »
your initial post already asked me about "fresh or reused" during the blood draw and I've already answered.

Relax, Move on with your life or talk to the clinic.

Jim Sir Pls clear my first and last doubt. If there have been blood on bore(tip) of the needle or body of the needle from previous draw and that reuse needle punctures and gets in my vein then possibility of any blood from the needle mixes with veins blood. Its still no risk scenario.?

Do I Have HIV? / Re: Deep fingering with multiple CSW

28-day ban for excessive posting over no HIV risk situations/activities.

These questions have all been asked and read three times before I answered that it wasn't an HIV risk to you and you were warned. Now, if after 28 days, you return with more of the same the ban will be longer.

what type of injuries will pose a risk?

In theory something like if you got into a knife fight with her and were both needing urgent medical care, bleeding profusely into each other's wounds. However, that didn't happen, your situation was sexual contact not some fight to the death.

Also, you did not call an ambulance to attend to her vagina and in a moment of madness decide to cut your finger off whilst waiting and finger her with the blood stomp left on your hand to pass the time. My concern would be for her BTW in that scenario, not you and you would both have bigger problems than HIV to deal with.

What happened is you had a sore finger and fingered some lady, you also had sex with a condom and did some frottage, 2 days later you had a tingle in your cock. It's not an HIV risk and day-to-day scrapes, cuts etc are not an HIV route.

Do I Have HIV? / Re: Deep fingering with multiple CSW
« Last post by Mag2803 on April 22, 2024, 04:51:34 am »
One last question and im moving on from this.
I got Prostatitis a year after protected sex. I didn’t check the condom becuase it had anxiety during the sex and i finished quickly and left. By having tingling and discomfort in my penis 2days after the sex.im afraid the condom broke without me knowing and i developed these symptoms and the prostatitis.
- Dry mouth and ulcers, swollen lymph nodes in the neck, Bloating and gassy with slight constipation, feeling fatigue and brain fog, recurrent sinusitis and headaches.
- you told me fingering is not a risk but what about if there is a cut and blood, what type of injuries will pose a risk?
It is just when i got the tingling sensation and discomfort in penis 2 days after sex and prostatitis ( painful after ejaculation that lasts awhile, dull pain or stinging after urination, just discomfort in my pelvic area) made me think that the condom might failed or broke.
Thank you again and my bad for excessive question.

Your post in the "Living with HIV" section has been removed.

You had no HIV risk from the activities you mentioned here, this has been explained to you, your left testicle and right arm could fall off but it has nothing to do with HIV from the activities mentioned here and we are not going to pretend otherwise as that would be a disservice to you and the wider community.

Please do not post about this again as I'll consider it excessive, it already is, so posting about this again will lead to a ban*

Anyone who continues to post excessively, questioning a conclusive negative result or no-risk situation, will be subject to a four week Time Out (a temporary ban from the Forums). If you continue to post excessively after one Time Out, you may be given a second Time Out which will last eight weeks. There is no third Time Out - it is a permanent ban. The purpose of a Time Out is to encourage you to seek the face-to-face help we cannot provide on this forum.
