Yikes, you reeally need to be safer! But im sure you know that. You can go get tested asap, but it may not show up for as long as 6-12 months i beleive. Since its an immune system virus, you'll live longer if your immune system is not compromised by any other conditions. (even a flu can kill some people) Dont know when symptoms start..not to be a bitch but I use condoms. Stay healthy.

There are many different typs of tests for this. The first test to determine if your postive is an RNA test, which 9 - 11 days. A blood test can determine at around 15-30 days. Then the most common is the antibody test, to get a conclusive result at around 3 months. If you do have HIV the average is about 8-11 years depedending how strong your immune system is. If you take medication you can stop HIV from progressing to AIDS, most people can live an average life span and never get AIDS. You get an AIDS diagnose if your helper t count drops to 200 or lower. You may get ARS (Reto Viral) which is like a rash flu like symptoms after 1 month of infection. Your immune system keeps it in check and most of the time people would never know they had it.

You can live a long healthy life, like an HIV - person would. There IS a cure for HIV, but the stupid government won't let out the cure. You know why? Look at the population in Africa for example, there are so many of them. If they released the cure, their population would more than double in the next 10 years, and it wouldn't fix their food problems either! HIV is NOT a death sentence anymore. Do me a favor and go to amazon.com, and type in HIV/AIDS Cure. It's a green book. READ THE REVIEWS PEOPLE GAVE!! You'll usually start feeling sick after 6 months of contracting the virus. Just relax, I'm sure you'll be fine. I'm encouraging you to read this: http://www.watchtower.org/e/19981108/article_02.htm

I already answered this question for you earlier. Please refer to that answer. Most people will test positive for HIV antibodies within 3 months after being infected. In very rare cases, it could take up to 6 months for someone to test positive. Also, re: your other questions posted here: The length of life of someone who has HIV (virus that can lead to AIDS) is a complicated issue. It depends on many things, including how healthy the person was before getting HIV, how long they had HIV before being diagnosed, whether or not they are seeing a specialist and taking meds as prescribed, how well their bodies respond to the meds, and how their body responds to the virus itself. In general, people who were healthy prior to getting HIV, get diagnosed within 3 to 6 months after getting infected, and who follow their specialist's advice (take meds as prescribed, etc.) have a good chance of living longer, healthier. There is no way to know for sure when you will start feeling sick, or when symptoms will start. People could have HIV for 2-7 years, or even longer, before seeing symptoms. HIV kills the cells our bodies use to fight infections. When that cell count drops to 200 or below, AIDS is diagnosed. As that cekk count drops, the body is not as able to fight off other infections. Treatments for HIV can significantly increase the amount of time between diagnosis of HIV and diagnosis of AIDS. The person above is correct in saying that HIV is not a death sentence anymore. But there is no cure for HIV at this point, because the virus changes so much.

I don't think there is any way you can test yourself for std's, you should go to the appropriate department for tests, sex to me has been the most irresistible experience in my life, but I shudder at the thought of unprotected sex with anyone I am not certain of.
