To all:
i am in a panic, I had sex with a female prostitute about30 days ago, I am married and have not used condoms in many years. She put a red condom on me. After we were done I took off the condom it did not look like it broke but my shaft was covered with a red substance that looked like blood. I have talked to several people and all said if the condom broke I would have known. I bought a three pack tried all 3 (by myself) and each time I put a small cut on the side of the condom. Only 1 of 3 times did it actually break. The other 2 stayed as they were but with the 1/4 in cut in them.
I have been showing many hiv symptoms (started about 8-9 days after the contact were very strong for about 2 weeks and are still around.
Physical problems: sore lymph glands in armpits, groin neck, pain in prostrate, penis and testicles, daily temprature to about 99.3 - 100, very sore muscles and joints, pain shooting from groin down my legs, now night sweats.
I am in a panic since I got tested for std's all were clean, also I got an antibiotic and it is not helping.
There is a new test that tests for the hiv dna and is supposed to work within 72 hours to 14 days after contact. I took two of these expensive tests (hiv-dna pcr test) one at 15 days and one at 24 days and both were negative. But I am still having symptoms unlike anything I have felt before.
Anyone ever have a similar experience?
Anyone know about the reliability of the pcr test.
Please any info????
