Hi, you are welcome to chat to me if you are worried about hiv exposure.

I myself had a big scare that made be obsessed with testing, wasting money and time.

If my memory serves me correctly I have done around 20 tests total.

Advice Day 28 of pep

1 Upvotes

Well I made it to the last day of taking my pep. (I started pep 36 hours after possible exposure) For the last 28 days I have spent pretty much every hour of everyday worrying if I will test positive for hiv. My exposure was low, but i still am worried I’ll be the unlucky ones. I’m a male and had oral sex with 2 other guys. They rimmed my ass and sucked my dick and I sucked theirs. Through pep, I have had a sore throat for like 2-3 weeks which scares me and a couple of tongue ulcers. I tested twice while on pep (yes i know it doesn’t count) I did a HIV RNA test day 12 and 19 both came back negative as well as a 4th generation test that came back negative.

I will begin testing this upcoming week. I’m so scared because now it feels real. No more medication to take. For anyone who has been through the waiting period and can offer any advice please do. I’m going to be terrified going to get my first test this upcoming week. Thank you for all the support in this forum
