I am a young professional sharing a room and parlour self contain with a friend. Now my friend has always been in the habit of bringing all sorts of girls to the house. This is a conduct which I have tried my best to ignore in order to allow peace to reign.

At some point he brought this particular girl and she stayed for sometime with us. From my conversations with her, she has an impressive body count and really dislikes condoms. At some point, she became very sick. Had white patches in her mouth and was very feverish. We had to take her to the hospital so she doesn't die in the house. The Doctor ran several tests on her and her HIV status was positive.

About a week later, I took my laptop to work and when I returned, I dipped my hands in the bag to retrieve my key only to be severely cut by a razor blade my roommate left in the bag. I asked him who owns it and he said he it belongs to the girl and he put it there hoping to dispose of it later. My heart bled. I rushed that night at about 9:45pm to Ikoyi military hospital to get PEP, but the hospital said I have to wait until the next day as the pharmacy had closed. The next morning at about 11:00am, after a lot of delay, I finally got the anti retroviral drugs.

Now after taking the drugs for about 3 days, the side effects were terrible and unbearable. I already had a subsisting kidney problem and the drugs was making it worse so I had to stop. What I want to know is what are my chances if I permanently discontinue the drugs? Am I going to seroconvert? I am scared shitless and if this happens to make me HIV+, I am seriously considering suicide.

Pls help me people.

Pls help me to move this post. I need to get as much input as possible.
Nice story. But the part you forgot to tell is that it wasn't a razor blade that cut you. Rather either your condom busted or you decided to have a quickie with an olosho.
Nevertheless, its important you take the ARV if she is confirmed to be positive. Although there are chances the blade does not have the virus since HIV virus does not survive long outside a host.

I did not even bother going through the write up before rushing here to comment....

seriously? What a question?

if you are having symptoms go for a medical check up. why bore us with possible ways you contacted the virus. Are you looking for medical advice or you just want nairalanders to make you feel better.

Oga go do checkup abeg

Suicide because of HIV? Are you mad? To spend eternity in hell because of something that can be managed. You must be crazy honestly.

Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by mamaluwe22(f): 4:53am On Sep 20, 2019
Why that picture?Are they positive? Asking for a frd]Being HIV positive is not a death sentence. Majority of nigerian girls are HIV+ so if you have fvcked a 9ja chick without condom before then you got it from her and not the innocent razor blade.[/quote]
Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by idesylvester(m): 4:54am On Sep 20, 2019
Carry out a test and let us know the result... Like most people said, the virus is strong when its in the blood but outside it's weak and can die easily. At some point Google made me thought i had HIV when i had similar symptoms of HIV, not knowing it was a hiding Typhoid.

even if her blood stained the blade the possibility that there is a time gap between when she put it there and when you had the cut give a fair chance that you DON'T have it cause the virus cannot live survive outside a living cell... put your mind at rest and go find a wife and repent

Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by Tugee: 5:11am On Sep 20, 2019
Firstly, let's consider the worst case scenario, that you have the HIV!! Trust me this is not the worst thing that can happen to you. HIV is no longer a death sentence as the media portrays, matter of fact there're common sicknesses that are worse than HIV such as diabetes, cancer and chronic renal diseases. You can still live with HIV and "Live your best Life.'' Don't let the devil defeat you and make you consider suicide, no one is certain what lies out there, Life is hard doesn't make death easy. In this country you can wake up in January squatting with a friend and in December you're moving into your apartment in Lekki, trust me these miracles happen everyday & all you have to do is to truly find Jesus (not the Nigerian church tax tithe collecting jesus); be patient and diligent in your hustle.

Secondly as for the razor, I don't think HIV can survive outside the host for over 30mins so you should be fine. I must commend you for having yourself tested, you don't loose anything in getting to know ur status.

Lastly, let this scare be a reminder, next time always use a condom and stick to one partner only. Abstinence is the best if possible.

Story.

I am trying to imagine why your friend would keep his girls razor in your laptop bag.
Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by Starke(op): 5:27am On Sep 20, 2019
Lord Jesus! All these people accusing me of sleeping with the girl, I said I didn't f**k her. The girl prior to her illness was quite bubbly and I gist with her anytime am around. That's how I got to know all that, she was quite frank about her sex life. Moreover I am no saint and I have a gf I f**k on a regular basis.

For the ones asking why I'd take retroviral drugs when am not HIV+ should know that there a procedure called Post exposure Prophylaxis(PEP) which anybody can undertake when they have cause to believe they were in a risky position. The drugs will prevent you from becoming positive even when the virus enters your blood stream.

The virus doesn’t survive outside its host for long. So unless you slept with the girl, taking antiretroviral drugs is a very foolish thing to do. What are you attempting to kill? Malaria virus?


You didn’t even take a HIV test?! Are there parts missing in your story?
Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by Realtizzy(m): 5:29am On Sep 20, 2019
Bro hiv virus does survive after few minites in non living thing, so there is no way u will be positive nd the razor belonging to the lady does not mean it cut her too but what am suspecting is that u did other things with her and pray God saves u

ITbomb:
Fish you no chop, bone wan come chuck you. Never!

Ask for the drugs side effects, you should be alright.
I doubt if the virus can survive that long outside a host
Viruses are referred to as borderline organisms for a reason. In a host, they come alive, but on a dead surface, they remain inactive until they are re- introduce into a living substrate, then they come alive again. Some can stay for decades in that state


Now to op. I doubt you have been infected. But even if, suicide is not the option. There are several people with it and you won't even know. Family, friends, coworkers neighbors etc

Cc: RTSC2 and iITbomb

Correction: it seems the HIV virus doesn't really stay long outside the body.

You don't have it. Just relax your mind. Your friend should be worried not you. So long as the blade was there for long as in you did not cut yourself just after cutting her.

Well, if your story is true and its anything to go bye. Then, you are not positive because the HIV virus doesn't survive more than 30 seconds outside a host.
So relax!
I am a medical doctor
Re: Help! Am I HIV Positive? by peacettw:
@op you had mentioned that the trauma occurred a week after the lady was admitted in the hospital. This is good cos HIV virus cannot exist outside the host for that length of time. It simply isn't possible. So, if that is the case, I highly doubt that you have the virus.

The second scenario is that your friend may be lying and had used the razor recently. I am curious as to the reason you are not worried about your friends HIV status. The girl may have gone but there you are sharing your domicile with someone at a high risk of having the virus. Forget about the razor, your friend may be the next host and since I can't tell his moral compass, your flatmate may be staging the scene for you to be exposed to the virus as well. How else can you explain why a "sane" person will put a HIV-laden razor in your own bag? It simply doesn't make sense.

Since you are emotionally fragile evidenced by the suicide thoughts and all, I will advice that you seriously consider relocating. Your flatmate may just be the death of you. Good luck
