Hair growing from the Palm!
      #176849 - 02/23/06 09:16 PM

Hello,

Honestly, i try not to come here to keep my anxiety under control. As usual, the lympyj nodes under the chin and armpits are still there for quite sometime now. But today, really something peculiar happened and made me come back here to ask a question. When i woke up in the morning, i notice that there was a hair growing from a part of my palm.The skin on that part has been rough for quite sometime. I took off the hair, and now that part is in pain. Do you guys read anywhere that this is a symptom of HIV??thank.

Bura,
Don't you know the cause of hair growing on your palm is masturbating too much? :)
No, but seriously, I've never read anywhere that this might be a sign of HIV and believe me, I've done alot of research! You had a negative ELISA at 197 days (over 6 mos), this means you are definitely and conclusively NEGATIVE!!! Unless you've engaged in other risky activity, Please accept your results...

Have you been back to the doctor? Maybe they can help you find out what is wrong, because as others have stated, hairy palms are not caused by HIV- nothing I have read indicates that. Of course, I am not a doctor, but I was an extreme worried well that read up on symtoms way too much, and never once did I see that as a symptom. I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks guys for cheering me up....maybe i had too little sex or masturbation to cause this!! But seriously, i am not torturing myself.....but out of a sudden this kind of thing arises. It is a bit odd isn't it?? The doctors here are lousy/ Just imagine, after obtaining my PA result which is negative (according to the doctor) as she informed me verbally, my appointment with her is on the 1st of march. Just recently she called me up to postpone the appointment to 15th of March. That is why i am really worried getting infected. Not only it will affect my love ones but....no back up here medically!! Thank guys!

but bura the medical staff may be lousy the doctors may not be worth a shit but test will come out pos or neg and yours are neg, you do not have hiv, you are tortureing yourself for the time and money you are wasting fly out of there and get to a place that you trust medically if that is what it going to take or order a test on the internet, you can order a rapid test on line. from tyson research labs. please do something to stop this silliness. you are going to alienate your family and friends. as always will keep you in my prayers. love and peace

The priests told me when I was at catechism that if you played with yourself, you know the sin of Onan, you would get hairy palms. Have you been playing with yourself again?
