Since you're an expert in testing and feel knowledgable about HIV enough to tell others what they should be doing why then are you asking about your risk when you have tested negative well past the window period?

I would think you would know that a test that far out is conclusive so HIV is not your problem.

H. pylori is caused by a bacteria transmitted through food or drink. Being knowledgable about HIV would also tell you that unless your having sex or sharing needles with your kids that they probably got the same bacteria from something you all ate.

H. pylori causes weight loss, weight loss causes you to look gaunt. Along with loss of fatty tissue around the eyes (from the weight loss) will cause the capillaries around the eyes to become damaged easily causing dark circles. Also acid reflux from the ulcers in the gut from the H. pylori will cause a white coating on the tongue.

Stress would cause night sweats and itchy skin. So does changing weather and a host of other things. And if your wife didn't wake you up to ask if you pissed the bed it wasn't night sweats. Night sweats are drenching to the point where you have no choice but to wash the sheets in the morning cause they will remain wet all day.

So after 5 tests and well beyond the window period you should know beyond a shadow of a doubt more than anyone here HIV is not your problem. Especially when a dr has told you what the problem is.

i am human and i have my doubts and fears, like everyone else. I read that someone took oraquick at 7.5 weeks, which the test says not accurate before 12 weeks( 3 mos).

As far as H pylori..i told my drs that i may have it, gave my symptoms and they said no, but gave me the test to shut me up.. I came back positive for h pylori...i was right..

my fear is for my son, more then myself. he as totally skin and bones..diarrhea every other night for 2 months..ask his dr to test for pylori and hiv.. they say no..i have look at pics of him from the last 5 months..his face is drawn with wrinkles under his eyes ,when back in may his face is full.. i know its h pylori, but then sometimes my fear of hiv sets in..by the way he is 3 and has a habit of scratching and bitting..has broke my skin causing it to bleed

It's been proven over and over again saliva, biting, & scratching does not transmit HIV. Plus you need to have HIV to transmit it. You have 7 tests proving you don't.

Let me spell it out for you. Multiple negative tests = HIV negative.

Your problem is what we warmly call worried well syndrome. Symptoms include doing something you feel guilty over, having a sense that you are positive no matter what tests you take or that they return negative always, don't bother to learn anything then want to disagree with basic knowledge, thinks everyone is wrong but them, thinks they infected their entire family, and posts to others giving advice they can't follow themselves, and normally they have a perfectly logical explanation to their problems and say that it can't be it it has to be HIV.

Do yourself a favor get a therapist. H. pylori cures itself that is why your kids dr isn't gonna bother feeding into your hysteria.

i will agree with you on hiv, but as for h pylori, i believe like most bacteria, treatment is need to cure it..untreated pylori can cause cancer.. i will post again at a later date. good night!
