Can I have contracted HIV?!
Question: Can I have contracted HIV!?
Ok, just to begin this: I have never had sex and never had blood transfusion in anyway!. Last year March I got the hives (a form of rash) and it left me on June 25th!. Now this year I began having the hives again at April-May and its on going till now, but it happens now a lot less (once every 4 days-week)!. I went to the doctors and they tested me for 10 different diseases including, hepatitus A, B, C, microbial A and B and some other disease and I came negative to all of them!. I also took an allergy test and came back negative!. I told my doctor do you think this might be a bacterial infection or fungal infection, he said no or else you would have the rash the whole time!. I am scared now I have HIV since one of its symptoms is a rash (by the way the rash you get from HIV is it in the form of hives!?)!. And so 3 doctors concluded I have stress!. Recently also I got a stye in my eye!. It went away in a weeks time (I didnt know to put hot water on my eye for 10 minutes)!. And now my sister got the stye too and hers went away in 2 days (she knew since the beginning about hot water), could those days just be coincidence or do I have HIV!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
you don't get hives when you have hiv! hives are an allergic reaction! what are you eataing!? laundry detergent!? soap!? lotion!? perfume!? new pet!? take some benadryl you'll probably feel better then!. if you are nervous then take an hiv test to rule that out, sometimes you get a rash from stress!. i remember during finals week one semester while i was writing a term paper and breaking up w my bf i got hives all over my body because i was soooo stressed, steriods cleared it up!. btw when people with advanced hiv get a rash it is blotchy and purple, like bad bruises not hives!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
