This is very embarrassing, but I had an
affair with a man for 1-1/2 years, and it
ended 4 years ago. We never had sex with
anyone else during that time, except for
our spouses. I was apparently out of my
mind.
This man recently had a scare because of a
skin infection, and his white cell count
was way up, but it did not turn out to be
hiv.
I've had a number of complete blood counts
over the past few years due to another
physical disability, and they've all been
well within the normal range. So are the
ones our spouses have had.
I have no swollen glands or any other
physical abnormalities except for my
pre-existing musculoskeletal problem.
Is it at all possible that i'm
hiv-positive, though? I'm extremely
scared and paranoid.

Yes you are being paranoid and neurotic.
Hiv would should up in a blood test 6
months after contracting it. If you have
had blood tests since you were with this
man, and they were negative, you are fine.
Countyour blessings, and let this scare
be a lesson to you...Do not have affairs!

If the guy used a condom or was
circumcised and you didn't perform any of
high risk forms of sex (i.E. Anal
intercourse) your chances of being
infected are very low. Especially if the
guy is still healthy. You might ask him?
