Could i have HIV/AIDS?

Question

So about 2 years ago, i was dared to cut my self with scissors (i know it was stupid). and the same day i had a weird cough, anyways there we're 2 other kids involved, i made sure i didn't make a cut but i did do it to be "accepted" and there was no visible cut, but the cut was inflamed (kind of like when a cat scratches you and it gets inflamed) i was the first to go (i think) and there was no "visible" blood on the scissors, then a couple of weeks later i got a cold/fever. I was so depressed that i might have gotten some disease and i also didn't feel like eating . and i lost like 5 lbs... well 2 years later here i am today still worrying, my last cold i caught was maybe 6 months ago and i've only had like 3 "real" colds/flu that last for about 2-4 days. I have gained weight. Do you think i could have HIV/AIDS? ( i was only in middle school at the time) and no real rashes or anything. I don't do drugs, im not sexually active nor am i homosexual. there is so many things i havent done in my life, and i want I.E start a family. I know it was very stupid and i should'a thought of the consequences. My doctor said i am healthy.

Answer 1

no you don't have HIV/ AIDS but that was a really stupid thing to have done in the name of acceptance. I hope your child or children have better sense than to do something as ridiculous as that. it was inflamed because the scissors was not sterelized

Answer 2

the only way to be sure is to get tested. you can go to planned parenthood and they will test you for free. they have two kinds of test blood tests and saliva swab tests.

Answer 3

if ur doctor ran a blood test and said you were healthy then there is nothing to worry about. but you should be fine it sounds like the scissors just scratched you a little bit.

Answer 4

Probably not

the immediate reaction to the cut was probably just an bacterial infection

plus if ur doctor says dont worry, then dont worry

its nothing
