Estimado Doctor un saludo agradecido por tan noble labor espero tenga un aņo de mucho exito y logros. Le planteo mi situacion. Hace un aņo estuve con una mujer la cual ignoro su condicion.use proteccion pero al retirarme el preservativo estaba impregnado de sangre. estoy preocupado porque creo haber hecho contacto de mi pene con la secrecion. Me realize un PCR-ADN a los 3 meses:negativo y elisa a los 3,6,9 y 12 meses. estaria tranquilo si no fuera por que he tenido diarreas moderadas de 2-3 dias alternadas con periodos de 5-8 dias de constipacion desde mayo/2007 asi como tos seca sin patron definido de aparicion que remite 1-2 semanas para luego aparecer desde enero/2007 y perdida de peso de 5-8Kg aprox. no he tenido otros sintomas relevantes. Mi pregunta es si debo seguir hasta cumplir los 16 - 24 meses para descartar. Gracias Doctor

Estimado Amigo: No tiene que seguir realizandose mas pruebas . Usted no esta infectado a partir de esa exposicion.
