That post did get me shocked and i understand how you feel. But the further i got into the replies the more convinced i got that there is a very small chance that you got it. I really dont think you have anything to worry about.

Hope youre alright m8..... Post us the test results!

Take care\

GO OUT AND OCCUPY YOURSELF

but before you do...reread ABT's post, be optimistic bout' your chances and thank the girl if you haven't already for giving you the head's up as well as being courageous enough to tell you.

Whatever the results may turn out to be, that's neither here nor now...just smile each morning you get up till than and just tell yourself you're gonna make the MOST of the day!

Knew someone -- unfortunately (ugh...long story!) still know -- that went through a smiliar crisis. The only thing that really cheered her up was the fact that she was around people that loved and cared about her -- took her mind off of it -- and we spent each day to the fullest.

I hate to be the one whos looks @ it from another angle..yes your chances of contracting it from her are slim(does she even know if shes got HIV yet?) Either way I believe(but I may be wrong) that you have to go back in 6 months to see if you actually have HIV or not, and this first test is just preliminary, but that the diseases can stay dormant and undected for a long time...so while the next weeks result MAY be reassuring, I dont think you are in the clear yet.

somebody please correct me. I would love to be wrong.

actually i believe you're right.....a girl i know went through the same process....both times "negative"

>JM<

ps. u'll be all right tiesto14

hey everyone its me...

yes it is true it does take 6 moths to know for sure that you are not infected...but the CDC (Center for Disease Control) says, as does my doctor, that by 3 months a person's body will form antibodies to the virus that can be detected....and there is a 99% chance that if after 3 months of NOT being infected that you are not going to be...but just to be certain they have you retest again just to be safe for the small percentage that does test positive after that time peroid...

so YES i will have to be retested but if after 3 months i am negative then i have a 99% chance of being ok....so i wont worry as much....

Alot of people said that my ex-girl was good enough to tell me when she could of hid it...and i AGREE...i am not really mad at her or anything, even though she did cheat...but she is in the same boat as i am right now...we are both struggling with the wait process.....i am a little bit more scared then her but we are both shitting bricks....

I try and forget it and just go out and stuff...but i can't...my friends wanted to take me out tonight to a rave...but i just couldn't go...i am getting myself so worked up over this that i am actually making myself sick....i am so scared that i feel nauseaus and have a headache that goes from my head to my lower back....i just can't relax...i havent even been posting on TA..except for this post because i want you all to know how i am doing and everything...

You know the "TINGLES" we all get from certain tracks?....well after rereading this entire thread and all your posts again for the 20th time i keep getting tingles knowing you are all here helping me and showing your concern....

My chances of having it like ABT said are very low...but there is still a chance and that is enough to put the fear in me....I just dont know what i am going to do if i am positive....i think the first thought that will come into my head IF they say i am positive is the thought i am going to die within 10 years (give or take a year or 2).....then i will just break down and cry.....i am VERY emotional to begin with , as the people who knew me when i my ex girl broke up with me can tell you....so being so emotional i know i wont be able to handle it....i get such a weird felling in my stomach when i think about it...like butterflies or the feeling that your stomach is sinking....

on a lighter note....my friend tryed to cheer me up today...LOL...he did make me laugh HARD...he said this.....

"Well dude look at it this way now you can finally be with Maryann (thats my ex by the way) if your positive, because she will be too...and who else are you both going to hook up with at that point, so just think of that, you will finally get the girl you love so much"

....LOL...its kinda sick but kinda funny....it made me laugh....but only for a few...i just thought i would tell you all. since i want you all to know exactley whats going on....

Well... its now 11:45 on a Friday night and my friends begged me to go out and even offered to stay at my house with me..but i just wanted to be alone tonight...i will go out tomorrow night and get wrecked...but tonight i just wanna relax and watch tv and chill with my mom and sister....

so i will be back...and will keep you all informed...thank you all again for all of you support....i will never forget how you have helped me...ALL of you...thanks

think positive!!!!!

I MEAN NEGATIVE!!!!!!

well you get the picture!!!


WTF is going on here

this is not directed to the poor fella

but common

Africa has this big campaign thats been going on for ages

lack of education = HIV

and here we are americans still struggling with HIV. I mean i know lots of people with AIDS or HIV in San Francisco. 100% of them are older gay men or drug users and they are all over 35. Anyone before that age should be well educated on that this matter. Well im speaking from america and i dont know how canadians treat HIV but i was forced to learn somethign so real and scary a single mistake could mean my life. argh im kinda pissed

*hugs* I know that I'm new and don't know anyone here, but I feel for you. I hope the test comes back negative. I wouldn't want to wish something like that on an enemy.

Hey tiesto14, seems like you are blessed with some really great friends and family. That is so good to hear You sound like you are a very good person and it shows. It's great that you have some really cool friends that are there for you through thick and thin.

I definately agree that you have a very, very slim chance of contacting anything since you are the third link. I know it's hard right now but just think of this as another 'test' that life throws out at you. Something like this will make you look at life from a whole new perspective and make you a better person.

This is by far the most important thread I've ever read in any message board. It's affected me quite a bit. I'm really praying that you'd be hearing some good news on Wednesday as I'm pretty sure you will. Keep your spirits up, and try to have a great time with your buddies tomorrow. You're surrounded by some really good people
