everyone wish me luck. took a home access test yesterday. praying these symptoms mean nothing and theyre all due to stressing over this for 2 years. the usual...fatigued, headaches, swollen glands (i think lol), canker sores, etc... should know by friday or saturday :eek:

Good luck hun....I know how you're feeling, but it will all be over very shortly..Wil be praying:)

Good luck, and I hope you are feeling better real soon.

You took a BIG step in deciding to get tested and a VERY brave one. I'll be taking the test tomorrow. It is so scary! I know what your going through. I hope everything works out.

thanks everyone. yea....suprisingly....im doing alright. took a while to do the test. but today im doing quite well. keeping myself busy. finally talked about my fears with a friend today. took a huge weight off my shoulders.

for those of you wondering, i am in the high risk catagory. 3 different females unprotected. two of which have tested negative. so i guess im pretty confident as of right now. i will let everyone know.

your in my thoughts and prayers barb

well...called this morning and last night (rushing things lol) no results as of yet. hopefully by tonight. getting more nervous as time goes on. :eek:

Hey Coffee,
First I want you to take a deep breath and try to relax! And then I want you to think of some stuff you really need to do, but have been putting off for a while.......... now is the time to do those things! You need to occupy yourself with things that will take your mind off what the test results will be!
I weeded the landscaped area of my backyard! And I'm on close to an acre of land, lol! It definitely helped me when I was waiting for my results ;)

If you consider being with 3 different females unprotected two of which have tested negative, high risk. Then I must of been in the high risk catagory for all of my 20's when I had plenty of unprotected sex. I'm now 37 and don't have hiv or aids.

I consider the following to be high risk.

Have unprotected sex with someone who is HIV-positive.
Have another sexually transmitted disease, such as syphilis, herpes, chlamydia, gonorrhea or bacterial vaginosis.
Share needles during intravenous drug use.
Are a person with hemophilia who received blood products between 1977 and April 1985 — the date standard testing for HIV began. (my boyfriend's uncle had hemophilia and ended up with aids)
Received a blood transfusion or blood products before 1985.

I have a feeling you will test negative just like the two females did. :)

dont know if i should take that as a comfort, or as a insult. lol. unprotected vaginal sex is considered high risk. period. one or fifty women...still high risk. i feel pretty confident, but hey, you never know now a days.

You're almost at the finish line!!! You've got my prayers.

not sure when i can expect to have my results though. hopefully by tonight. if not...will they continue to test on sat? or will i have to wait for monday? that would suck. home access btw.

negative! :bouncing: just goes to show....get tested!

congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is awesome coffee. I am truly happy for you.

Woohoo Coffee now can you say, "where are the condoms please" and go get them

See, testing is the only answer everybody :)
