TheBiggestIdiot Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Hey i'm new to this site but so far it has been really helpfull. 2 weeks ago i had sex with a thai prostitute(yes it was me and not some friend) but the condom broke and eversince i have been scared shitless...i have looked up the symthoms and i have been experiencing some of them ... But tomorrow i'm going to Chiang Mai and in was wondering if there is a good hospital where i can get checked for hiv this week. I know there is a test that works after 3 months of possible infection and is quite cheap but i want to know it now because if the result is positive i will take the first plane back home for treatment... I prefer an anonymous test because i do have a girlfriend she is visiting in 2 months...i know i shouldn't had sex in the first place but i was really drunk and the taxi driver used my drunk ass :S i ended up paying him 2000bath and some thai hooker 7000bath...

Popular Post Chicog Posted April 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2014 There's a clap clinic on Loi Kroh. Go and get a full test. Have no idea what symptoms you've been googling, but sounds more like you have a bad case of psychosomatic illness. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Well; your handle is an honest one and says it all but; many have been in your position before you.and have been ok after checks. Your worst enemy is your own mind at this point, so follow the advice in Chicog's post and go sort it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FiftyTwo Posted April 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) CM Ram hospital about 450bht for a HIV test. Go to reception, fill out the patient record form. Go to the blood testing right at the back of the main entrance. They take blood within 10 minutes. Come back for the results an hour or two later. I should point out that symptoms of HIV take months to appear. If you have symptoms in 2 weeks, more likely something else. Also, HIV because a comdom broke, almost impossible. On the other hand, taxi driver using your drunk ass, very possible. Edited April 15, 2014 by FiftyTwo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amexpat Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 When you go to the clinic, try to get some valium or other anti-anxiety meds. Then do some research with the Center for Disease Control, NHS, universities, etc, on female-to-male hiv transmission before you fly home for more testing. You stand a much greater risk of being killed on the way to or from the airport. Maybe your plane will be hijacked by terrorists. Could happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umbanda Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) All public hospitals offer HIV and STD testing. Results in 3 days. Even is the result is negative, you will be asked if you had non protected sex on the last 6 months. If you did, they will ask you to use condoms for the following 6 months and come back for a new test. Edited April 15, 2014 by umbanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMNL Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 There is HIV antigen test that could be done easily and at reasonable price however it's not as accurate as Viral load(PCR), which is normally not recommended as screening test. If it is positive, you likely to have the disease, if negative it does not rule out the HIV 100% though as it takes time for the virus to multiply itself to certain amount to be tested. Let's say if the partner had full blown aids, means load of viruses in her body chance you have contracted the HIV is high and the antigen could be positive. On the other hand if she has no disease or has it under controlled, the antigen test is certainly negative for the first situation and the follow up antibody test will also be negative , for the second scenario you may have the negative antigen test in the beginning as the viral was too low to be detected but the antibody will be positive later on. Test can be done Lab and hospital. I doubt it if the hospital would do it anonymous for you but it is confidential test as you know. As the other poster said chance of heterosexual to contract disease from one sexual contact is quite very low so hope you are on the majority side. By the way there is PEP( post exposure prophylaxis) Treatment for non medical profession too but normally start the ARV within 72 hours.

Popular Post DiamondKing Posted April 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) The chance of you catching HIV from hetrosexual sex is miniscule if it was a ladybiy and it was anal Ok your chances just shot up but its a complete misguided conception that having hetrosexual sex will cause you to catch HIV unless 1.) They are injecting drugs and sharing needles but even then you need to have open woulds for the virus to enter your body 2.) it was not really a woman and was a man Do the research and wipe away all the BS they try to feed you and look at the statistics and you will find its almost impossible for a guy to catch HIV from a woman although very easy for a woman to catch it from a guy. The biggest at risk are Homosexuals and Drug users who inject Dont worry about it just move on . Now bring on all those that are going to tel me I dont know what I am talking about LOL Edited April 15, 2014 by DiamondKing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusmarsh Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Id be utterly amazed if you were positive but if you are worried then its worth testing for peace of mind. I once had a test in the Ram hospital and would not recommend it at all. Once it got from the labs to the nurses on the desk where I was waiting, the envelope was open and the nurse called me out, then she took a cheeky look at the result before handing it to me. Didnt like that at all though enjoyed the negative result somewhat. Good luck to ya bud. Edited April 15, 2014 by marcusmarsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had one done there a couple years ago.

I hope you will use condoms with your girlfriend until you are 100% clear of any infections you can pass on.Bad enough that you are a pathetic boyfriend that would cheat on her, but you would be a truly evil person if you had unprotected sex with her if not 100% sure you are in the clear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condom (intact or broken) is no protection against herpes. Supposedly so widely spread that 1 in 5 Americans have it (US survey). Doesn't show symptoms within 2 weeks either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
