What I find disturbing is how you people are getting into these situations where you feel the need for an HIV test is necessary. |
What I find disturbing is how some people think they need a "situation" to get tested every once in awhile. Even if you always practice safe sex, you should still get checked with some degree of frequency. Most doctors draw blood for all detectable STDs when you get a physical. |

This is quite reasonable and I intend (hopefully) to pursue this now that I got the first 'conscious' one (I got tested before in the course of regular/army med. checks) out of the way. I've always had protected sex but still think it's only "fair play" to each other to get tested periodically. |

yup.
if you have sex with condoms, get tested every few months anyways....because nothing is 100% and testing is the only way to truly prevent the spread.
you would figure that a guy that works in pharma would not be that dumb....and i really have aids;) |

also the q tip feels good the 3rd or forth time when you know what to expect and how they twist it.
the only people that should not do std checks are the people that do not have any sex....hi fledz!
are you really that uneducated? |

A cathartic experience to say the least.
Highly recommended, especially for those who claim to suffer from depression. I'm not sarcastic - after 24 hours of agony you will appreciate every sunbeam and every blade of grass! |
No !
It is one of the best feelings in the world and even helpful through the utter dry-spell I suffered from until I met my current girl-friend. |

Holy . What was it like that first day, when you thought you had the HIV??? |
It sucked, I just layed in bed, thinking of how my life (when in reality it was just my sex life) was over.
The funny thing is, the reason I got the test was because I was giving blood plasma in exchange for money, so I could buy more weed :haha:
Maybe they tested my plasma for drugs, and found all the THC, then told me I had HIV just to scare the e out of me? |

Depends where you live and the prevalence of STDs. |
