I am 6 weeks pregnant and I have to get all the routine blood tests today. One of them is an HIV/AIDS test. I have never in my life been so terrified. The thought of it is making me loose sleep. I am a very healthy 25 year old woman and my husband is as well. I had sex with my first 7 years ago a few times, with a condom and then my husband. Thats all. We go to the doctor yearly for physicals and get blood drawn and are always healthy with no problems. Would a doctor be able to tell by regular blood tests if there was something wrong like AIDS/HIV. I know they dont test for it unless if you ask but could the results trigger the dr. to ask for more tests. And would I have symptoms by now 7 years later? I am probably being a paranoid mother to be but I am truly very scared. Any input would help. I want this baby more than anything and want it to be healthy and have healthy parents with no problems. :-/

Why is it that people are so scared to go for a HIV/AIDS test?

My brother was shown a partner notification letter that his girlfriend of less than a year could have HIV/AIDS. Plus a letter showing her appointment for an HIV/AIDS test. I told him to dump her. She has lied and had 2 sex partners besides him but he doesn’t believe it. She said that the letters are a lie. What can I do or say to make him believe it. Two letters would make me believe something is going on what about the rest of you. Give me your feelings.

my doctors office is right down the street (i can walk there), but im afraid that if i go there, they’ll tell my parents that i went for a HIV/AIDS test. i dont think i have it, but since watching the movie ‘girl, positive’ on lifetime, i want to get tested to be sure. since im 18, can i go to my doctors office and have this be strictly confidential? with no evidence that i was there at all?????
