High Risk of Std, Hiv, Etc. Please Help On What to Do. Posted: 08-31-06 13:53pm
Doctor,
i was recently in asia and slept with a
girl that I met from a bar. I am really
worried that I have contracted something.
We had kissed and she had performed oral
sex on me without protection. We also had
intercourse and I had protection.
However, I was really paranoid the next
day and went to a doctor ini asia. He
took my blood sample for a test but told
me that it would be about 7 days before
the results would come. I flew back to
the united states the next day and went to
another std doctor (this was about 4 days
after sexual intercourse). I did not have
any symptoms yet and no tests were done on
me from this doctor. I noticed a minor
cut on my penis and informed him about it.
He told me that it was probably a
bacterial infection and gave me levaquin
(500 mg, 7 pills... Im currently on my
last two) and injected me with bicillin la
(2,400,000 units) for prevention of
chlymadia, gonorhea and syphillis. Is
this the right procedure? He told me to
rest assure and that these diseases would
not reoccur, that they would be
eliminated... Is this true? I am really
worried for other viral dieseases as well.
I am scheduled to return two months from
now and have a herpes test, and then
another hiv test in the 3rd month. The
doctor in asia emailed me the results and
they were negative concerning hiv and
vdlr. However I know that these results
are probably inaccurate because it was
done only after one day of sexual
intercourse.
My main question is what I should do now?
What other precautions can I take or am I
just waiting, if any, as the virus
incubates into my body? Should I go to
another std clinic and get tested again?
Please help.. I am really worried and
scared.
