Response from Dr. Frascino

Hello,

Four condoms? Four???? That's impressive. I'm surprised you could feel anything with that many raincoats on! I've heard about "double bagging" but double-double bagging??????? By the time you were finished getting "dressed" I'm surprised your partner wasn't sound asleep!

Your repeatedly negative HIV tests out to 260 days are definitive and conclusive. HIV is not your problem. No way. No how. No additional HIV tests are warranted.

The bumps on the back of your tongue are most likely taste buds. See an ENT (ear, nose, throat) specialist if necessary. Your general medical doctor or a dermatologist should be able to diagnosis and treat your perianal infection. Remember, whatever is causing these problems, one thing is certain: It's not HIV, OK?
