My story. Dealing with the anxiety that resulted from something I felt I could not control.
Can taking antibiotics affect the test results
No it can’t.
@@joelopez3105 I am anxious, restless, and not calm about the symptoms that are in my body. I always remember the symptoms that lead to hiv, I saw it on tiktok youtube and google.
Hello sir I would like to ask I have done a vct check for hiv in the hospital 11 months after having sexual intercourse and the results were negative, but at that time the day before the hiv test I took antibiotic drugs because there was a little fever in my body. Is my test accurate, and can taking antibiotics affect the hiv test results.
Your test is accurate and conclusive. You are negative. HIV doesn’t hide. NO matter what you ate, drank, time of day, weather condition, regardless of any medications or anything else you could imagine. Your test is conclusive.
@@joelopez3105But my master has symptoms such as white tongue, night sweats, body aches muscle aches and password aches. I am tired of all these things. Please help me
@@joelopez3105And I googled that antibiotic drugs could affect my hiv blood test results.
Do you have a whatsapp or instagram number I would like to talk to you

Oh I remember my hiv panics, I even thought at one point that the needles they test you with were infected- all of this is rooted in your anxiety, so it manifests itself through this, but also there is a sense of “control” by being able to incessently research anything related to HIV
Yay! Btw, I LOVE those shades!!! What brand are they???
Hai brother i am also this situation i have lot of symptoms l........10th day HIV1 PCR negative,......43th day P24 antigen negative....48th day Hiv duo negative ......i am waiting for 90day test.....😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 I am very Stressed........
I have suffered from this phobia for 5 years. I had several negative tests but never believed them. Eventually I stopped thinking about it so much because I had very few symptoms, but subconsciously it kept bothering me. Then one day I was in a brothel and had sex with someone and hey presto, all my fear and the phobia started all over again. I am incredibly afraid again that I might have been infected and I no longer eat or sleep. I have lost weight and have stomach problems due to the stress. I really don't want to live anymore.
Hi. This video is not there to help me, but its reality. My fiancée and I discovered she had HIV since 2014, (a guy she met 3 months prior to me) when she stated very bad symptoms like; low grade fevers, night sweats, oral thrush, etc and this for a year. In the spring of 2024 she was admitted for a severe PCP Pneumonia. She made it out pretty nicely and now she's on antiviral pills since. But me, I have no symptoms since 2014 and until now. Just thinking of getting tested makes me feel sick. I do suffer from panic attack disorder and I take meds for that. Now I need to face the reality and go for a HIV test. I need help to just go and get over with it. Its been 10 years at the end of June of 2024 that I'm with her. But since we went trough this AIDS thing, now my panic disorder make me suddenly feel like I'm sick, but with no symptoms.
phobia make deja vu i hate my mind
Hi Joe had overcome the HIV anxiety before even though there is no Risk of exposure i thought i had and later after councelling everything went fine it was 3 years back, currently the anxiety is hitting hard cause of the low risk exposure i had it's like i didn't even had sex but i had very very low risk activity that CDC has only documented handful of cases and was not conclusive and another activity was 0 risk, i don't know suddenly after a week i started developing headache and flu like symptoms it's like my nose it blocked and cause of that my head felt heavy around my eyebrows when i bend i feel like my mucus is travelling around and once my mucus is cleared from my mouth i feel good and it comes out when i take steam i had fever initaly but now it's all gone and i used to feel fatigue google says it's sinus i did had sinus issues long back like 4-5 years back but I don't think it is I think it's cause of Hiv really scared cannot share this with anyone feels alone and i am dying with in my self don't know what to do think my case will also be included in that hanadful of cases the most unlucky person😔
I tried to talk to girl that i had this low risk activity she said she never ever had intercourse but i don't trust her and she was even not keeping well after 3 weeks of exposure and i tried to talk to her regarding this but she called me lunatic and blocked me😔
What test is conclusive after 90 days is it third or fourth generation?
Elisa or Rapid bro
Bro are you fine
@@Zeroerror.00 my partner did the combo test after 21 days in the lab and it was negative, I’ve had the home test (4th generation) after 51 days and it was negative but i have some symptoms and that’s making me worry.

Sir , I used the trimmer of hiv patient, I didn't find any blood on it , after 3 months I had sore throat and after 6 months I had tonsillitis , do I have hiv? I am very scared, i never had any tonsillitis in my life
@@Cherrysnoww No you don’t. There are many other reasons why you could be sick. One of the reasons is that you just have a cold or just something going on with your tonsils like tonsillitis
I had EMDR for my health anxiety and which helped me. I’m also on medication for my OCD which helps too.
Jennifer Vaughn “highly unlikely” video doesn’t even help me
@@neox9369 It’s a process. Nothing about health anxiety is a quick fix. It took me a year to understand the tools I needed in building good habits. It took consistency in my behavior for those habits to make changes in my life. Dont stop looking for things that can help you on your journey, but understand the only person that will get you through this is yourself. These tools and techniques may not fit your paradigm. I learned much over my time and not all things worked. Some things work more for some and less for others. Good luck on your journey.
Why are the symptoms present and the tests negative after 9 months? What is the solution, please?
Hey what kind of symptoms are you having? What type of exposure did you had? Can we talk? I am going through same?
@@MosMos-sr9nf There are symptoms you can refer to online but understand it’s like catching a cold. Your body fights the virus and makes you feel sick. Only if you are testing negative and are feeling sick you don’t have HIV. You are likely just hyper focusing on your body and the stress is comprising your immune system. Very real thing. If your test is negative you are negative.
@@AnonyMous-u4e من اي بلد انتي
@@joelopez3105 Hey man, I had low risk exposure. I touched the condom and touched my foreskin. I haven’t had any tests yet. But I had fever right after 3 days and had diarrhoea after 5 days. How likely is it that I am gonna get infected by such exposure? I talked to doctor and so many other sexual health clinics they say the chances is zero. But I am so stressed rn and have no courage to take the test.
Bro I finally stumbled upon this after 30ish videos and Reddit posts about HIV symptoms. You guys wanna know what started it? Thinking one of the line cooks spit in my burger at Five Guys. I shit you not. I have 0 bodies. Yet here I am lmao, being afraid of having an STD. Every single post and video said the same thing but I didn’t listen. Very low, extremely low, basically zero, essentially zero, negligible, might as well be zero. “You’d have to both have a cut in the mouth.” Oh but I had an ulcer at the time, so that’s a break in the mucosa membrane and a possible port of entry. “Yeah but the viral load in saliva is close to nothing.” Oh but it’s not zero, it might as well be, but it’s not. And why did I think he spit in my food? Cause I said thank you and have a good night and he didn’t respond with anything. Nothing funny in the burger, searched it up and down and picked it apart layer by layer and checked with my phones flashlight, nothing suspicious. Obviously didn’t see it happen otherwise I would’ve known and thrown it away. Nonetheless, 30 days left and then I’m getting a blood test lol. Anxiety is a real thing man, sucks.
@@paulhillegass7738 Anxiety is Fear and fear is a liar. Amazing how powerful the mind is.
Going through the same thing bro I am crying I received a blow job from a massage girl 3/4 months ago got tested got non reactive result and severe anxiety startrd

@@Richard-kh3dm I’m on the other side of my recovery. Thanks for the recommendation though. I have and still practice healthy habits to maintain my mental and physical health. Counseling is a great resource although finding the right people can be a challenge.
Interesting video… I was diagnosed with HIV in October of 2021. May do a video on this.👍

Hey how are you right now
That how I am too . Thanks for sharing
If u have hiv symptoms but tests are negative then you have yinzibing virus
I hadn’t heard this term before. I looked it up and it’s interesting how it happened on such a large scale in China. For those that come across this comment it’s referring to fatigue and stress that cause the symptoms NOT HIV.
@@joelopez3105 it is hard to get information about yinzibing. Bcz they used firewall to down all the information related to yinzibing . But it is real. It has affected lakhs of people .the point is why isn't this disease catching the eye of media . Bcz people feel shame in facing media as this is considered to be sexually transmitted disease . Its mostly effects men and less women's . Brazil china India Russia are most effected countries. But no test can detect it as it is a lab made virus . It has obvious physical symptoms like white tongue , facial fat loss, abdominal fat gain. Still it is called aids phobia by Chinese howere 2019 study by China says it is not completely mental disease. It is a huge coverup disease.
After 3 months hiv antibody test negative but i have all hiv symptoms even lymph nodes why ?
You are negative. Your symptoms are unrelated. It’s likely that your anxiety over the situation has decreased your immune system and made you sick. Stress does that. Anxiety and stress will damage your body. This fear driven by internet searches, hyper focusing on your body and the stigma that revolves around HIV are what’s causing this. Your tests are conclusive. Google that definition. Reading it helped me. By the way HIV is a chronic condition treated by taking one pill a day. U=U. Look that up also.
Hi. Sir how are you u okay
Yes I’m good thank you.
@@joelopez3105 it has been a while since u posted actually l want to email you to check if ur okay a concern follower🙈
This video randomly showed up and I want to hug you.. in early nineties I was in total terror from aids.. it terrified me alllll the time and the day I found out I was negative I cried tears of relief! Hugs to you
Thank God his idea....I was having anxiety.... because I did it six times with a girl..and it's my first and I'll never do it again and I'm having headache and tummy issues...I don't know if its anxiety
It’s definitely a life ruiner
I be worried about hiv I got test this month I was negative I also take the prep pill to prevent hiv
The phobia is killing me two weeks after finishing pep..I feel nauseous I struggle to eat..I only hear in my brain seroconvertion everytime..am so tired
How are you?
I take prep pill against hiv I been on it for almost two years I hope the prep pill works
Something that has worked for me is anti-depressants which work for anxiety. I've been on it since 1999. Sometimes I need to ramp up higher and then I ramp down, always while working with my doctor.
I do agree that medication can pave the way towards balance. For me, during my initial onset, medication allowed me to get the sleep I needed to start working towards the long term fix. It did have side effects though which also created roadblocks. Recently I have changed some of my internal dialog with a focus on living in my present. Being present in the moments that I’m in. I have found that it helps stop any hyper focusing on the unknown future. I began my battle with anxiety/HIV Phobia back in 2018 and have since made tremendous strides. You are obviously more at risk if you did engage in incentive sex (I read your other comment) and I wish you lived in a world without this stigma and fear. That’s really what this page has become for me. A mechanism to fight again HIV stigma. No one deserves HIV and it’s sad how many people view it as a punishment. Fortunately it’s just a chronic condition now. I also find that most people I speak with on here are also OCD to some extent.
For me, as a gay man, I engage in non-insertive sex with men. It prevents a lot of anxiety.
Dude it took me 2yrs to get over my fears and get tested
I am definitely understand your feelings this insted become me all hiv system match in my boddy but i am going to the lab and a hiv 1 antibodies test one day after my report is negetive but my symptoms is continue my boddy and again after 3 months i am decided a hiv test but report is negetive but my mind thinking always i am hiv positive my mother understand my condition one day after i am appointment psychiatrist and doctor diagnosed me this is hiv phobia and fear problem 6 months after treatment i am fine
Are u gay
This gave me the courage to get tested. I was experiencing all kinds of symptoms after potential exposure a year ago; swollen lymph nodes, sore throat, diarrhoea, lethargy, and night sweats. But today, I got tested and came out negative. Please don't succumb to anxiety and get tested. Thank you bro.
Bro I am dying. I had potential exposure like 12 days ago. Soon after 3 days I got fever. I tested covid and I was positive. Fever is gone but I have lost my appetite and when I eat I feel like I’ll have a diarrhoea right after. I am so worried. I feel like this js the end. Can you please tell me what kind of exposure you had?
Bro can you please reply what kind of exposure did you had?

Hey Joe!! Ive been watching your videos a lot recently and they’ve helped me so much with my anxiety but as you know in your experience I still have doubts. Am a 21 year old guy and Ive been sexually active only through oral sex. On the night of March 11th 2024, I gave oral to this guy from grindr and I swallowed. Two days after I woke up feeling very tired and groggy my eyes were aching a bit with recurring headaches and a sore throat that lasted two weeks and a painless little bump i felt two nights prior developed into an ulcer. I also had white tongue (or i think I do) and some ache in my right leg. Immediately googled what I was feeling and I was damned to find that my symptoms aligned with acute HIV. Got so scared that my headaches got worse and by that weekend I developed a fever that lasted not longer than an hour though. Also developed aches in my lower back. Finally I got tested 14 days after with the Abbott Bioline HIV 1/2 3.0 antigen test which came back negative, still the lower back pains keep coming back and my mouth has been a bit dry with foamy saliva, googled it once again and I drove myself insane. Ive been going mad for the last month even though the practitioner at the clinic kept telling me my risk was low. :((( Are my results accurate?? I sometimes feel like ill faint from anxiety and stress
Hi there In 2019 I had sex first time with a female sex worker I had used condom for vaginal sex but I think did not used condom for oral sex but I didn't ejaculate I overall sexual intercourse after this i felt very much guilty about what i have done 1-2 weeks later I got dry cough which lasted for over a month but after taking some kind of medication it was gone completely ,skin rash which lasted for about 1 hour I took some medication & it was gone, may be a swollen lymph nodes I don't remember clearly, 5%-10% weight loss but i recoverd from it immediately after this I just freaked out I looked on google the first thing I saw was HIV I was scared to death also i did not knew the status of the female sex worker i had sex with. fast forward today by this time I have had sex with multiple female sex workers which are hiv negative so just want to ask that are there any chances I having hiv or not. (With all female sex workers I had used condom while vaginal sex & some times I used get blowjob without condom but I have never ejaculate in mouth without protection) 2 times I had oral sex with transgender they were the receiver I just got blowjob without condom but I have never ejaculate in mouth without protection also i did not had any anal sex with them after this i never had oral sex or anal sex with any transgenders Also my last 3 female sex partners are tested negative do I have to still worry? I'm Confused and scared I decided to take test this week but I'm very scared. I believe I have HIV I'm very scared to test after so many years what if im that unlucky person... the worst thing i am afaraid of is how my family will react especially my mom if i have HIV i don't have the courage to tell them if iam positive Please reply this is the first time I'm posting on public platform I'm very scared to take the test I'm very scared to take the test
I am terribly scared. I was told to wait at least 6 weeks after potential exposure, and now it's only the end of the second week. I'll go crazy.
After 14 days 4th generation tests do not change their results. Here in the states tests are considered conclusive after 90 days. HIV doesn’t hide. Stigma in the cause of your fear. HIV is a chronic condition that is treatable by taking one pill a day. Check out U=U. It allows people to live full lives without transmitting the virus. You won’t go crazy. Build some healthy habits and manage your stress. Fear will become an addiction if you don’t get ahead of this.
Thanks ❤️
I had an exposure on 26th Dec 2023 got ill with sore throat on 28th Dec,treated causally with sore throat issue ,it persisted ,googled ,sore throat came with hiv symptom got panicked tested at 3 weeks got negative results,many symptoms started to come rashes,gum swelling,needle pinching ,mouth ulcers and all,someone told 3 weeks to early to test,again tested after 6 weeks came negative ,and again multiple rash coming dermatitis ,and now got shingles after 3 months,been to many doctors no conclusive answers,don’t know what to do
@@saadsohail6520 Firstly you didn’t have an exposure unless the person or vector of contact was with someone that is HIV+. You might have had sex with someone whose status you don’t know. Very different than an exposure. Based on the tests you have taken at this point you are negative. Tests after 15 days don’t change. With all these “symptoms” you have you would have tested positive for HIV. HIV doesn’t hide. Symptoms would be a byproduct of your body fighting the virus which would create antibodies, which is what the tests look for. Im sure this message you have just sent me is a watered down version of what this fear is doing to you. Taking the reality of how chronic anxiety affects the body, understand that all these “symptoms” are likely a byproduct of said anxiety. If you are searching things on line, hyper focused on your body, not accepting results, looking for constant confirmation that you are okay or will be okay, you are suffering from health anxiety which! Will screw you up if you don’t get it under control. Practice general hygiene, sleep, eat right, exercise, meditate, stop looking things up on line. Facts: tests don’t lie and HIV doesn’t hide. Good luck on your journey towards mental health.
