HIV
    #9649483 - 01/20/09 10:57 PM (15 years, 1 month ago)

I know I know.... I KNOW. get tested.
I just can't right now. I'm not allowed to get out of my house unless i'm going to school or my drug counseling classes.
It's been 3 months since my last injection, and i'm starting to get nervous about having HIV. as i've noticed a lot of changes in my body. Before knowing about what HIV had in store for symptoms I was experiencing them. At first I thought it was the withdrawal, but i don't even crave it that much anymore. It's stll on my mind, but anyways, thats not the point.
Shot heroin 6 months, maybe 1-3 times a day to every other day.
Shared the same spoon, same water container. Reused my syringes until they were completely dull.
And one time my friend (who i'm 99% sure has HIV just from noticing symptoms from websites) put his bloody water in the spoon to cook it up for me. And me being a complete and utter retard shot it up. (I was already fucked up and didn't care.)
Now, as for symptoms.
I'm noticing that i'm always tired these days, usually depressed, constant headaches. Been losing weight. I can't even think that well anymore. But maybe that's natural when it comes to quitting opiates? Diarrhea rears its ugly head around a few times a week, never had it as much as I do now.
My tongue has white looking things on it, kinda gross, way back in the tongue, I don't know if thats a symptom or something else, but i just noticed it.
I know you guys can't tell me if I have it or not, but regardless, i'm gonna try and get tested asap, i'm gonna have to get the courts approval or sneak it in one of my adventures to my counseling class. I wish my town was larger so we could actually have a free clinic.
But i'd appreciate any opinions...
Thanks.

Ehh, i'm still living at my parents pad, and they already have enough on their plate and don't need to know about this.
I'm just nervous really, i know it'd be better if i did, but i'd be so heartbroken if i got the wrong results.
I'ma call my PO tomorrow and ask him if I can do that, and try and find a ride

Well, i'ma hit the sack, i'll update this tomorrow or the next day.
Thanks :smile:

I'm a nurse and I've worked with AIDS patients before so I know that it can get bad. If you do have HIV or AIDS you should get tested ASAP to avoid it getting worse at a faster rate than without medical intervention. Here you go:

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/hiv-aids/DS00005/DSECTION=symptoms

I noticed you didn't mention fever or swollen lymph nodes, but that you have symptoms from early through late stage infection of AIDS and a CD4 of less than 200. Is it possible you've had this awhile?

Check out that page. It's very compact and informative compared to most.

If you have questions or need someone to talk to, just PM.

Oh yeah, Walgreen's in the U.S. sells a AIDS testing kit you can send in by mail. I bought it for fourty or fifty bucks. You bleed all over this dot they give you on paper, you send it in, and call two days later. It has a prepaid postage on it. Even better. And completely anonymous. They don't even know your name, but be good to people you have sex with and please let them know.

Well, I don't really know what swollen lymph nodes are and I can't rule in fever as it is the time of year where fever is going around ya know?
I probably don't even have it and am just being overly paranoid.
Ahh, stage 1. denial :lol:

Check for any hard ball-like swelling around your neck, armpit or groin.

Ehh, i have one. Probably nothing to worry about. I just get overlyparanoid about things at times.
But nonetheless. My probation officer is a dick and wont let me leave even for a simple task like that

If your probation officer won't let you leave for an HIV test, call a lawyer. I'm pretty damn sure thats illegal for him to do. Maybe you can sue his ass.

How long has it been since you thought you were exposed to hIV?

The white spots on your tongue don't sound too good. The medical term is called thrush, its basically when your immune system isn't strong enough to fight off the normal bacteria that can grow on your tongue. However, its more common amongst people that have already progressed onto having AIDS. Note that HIV and AIDS are two different things. It usually takes a while for the body to progress onto getting AIDS though. However, heroin use can probably speed things up a bit because that already weakens your immune system. I wouldn't worry too much about it yet though, but do try and get tested. It would seem rather surprising that if you did have swollen lymph nodes, that you didn't know about them when they inflated. When you get infected with HIV the lymph nodes become quite big in size and stay that way for about a month or longer. They become like the size of golf balls. You surely would have noticed them in your armpits when applying deodorant, for example, or when looking in the mirror, you should have noticed bulges coming out of the sides of your neck. They also swell on the back of the neck, these are the easiest to feel since the skin is tight around there.

But yeah, definitely get tested. This should be a wakeup call for you to never do H again, regardless of the test results!

Take care and keep us updated. I know how scary this can be. I was convinced I had HIV after having sex with a slutty chick a while ago and not wearing a condom, went in, had a wide range STD test and came out clean. I changed my habits and now practice abstinence.

thrush is actually from yeast not bacteria.

It doesn't scare me away from heroin, its just a slap in the face to not share anything anymore.
I'll have to start carrying around my own shit to risk getting popped :shrug:
I don't know if i'll go back to heroin though. If I do have HIV, I gotta get out of illinois and go to cali or something. Or just live the rest of my days smacked out :yesnod:
