Tingling/numbness (attn: Jackie,GmanBill,Switch)
      #94632 - 04/07/04 05:29 PM

Has anyone out there ever heard of either "AIDP" or "CIDP"?

They're also commonly referred to as peripheral neuropathy. Has anyone experienced these symptoms? (tingling in hands and feet/arms and legs).

Here's some links in case you're wondering: http://www.thebody.com/treat/neuro_neuropathy.html#basics
http://www.thebody.com/nmai/neuropathy.html

I've been experiencing the strangest tingling/numbness for almost 10 days now. It seems to be getting worse. I did have unprotected vaginal sex almost 3 months ago . . . . . but tested negetive as recent as 7 weeks and 5 days.

Could this be a sign of seroconversion????

Please offer your input -- I'm really scared.

Thanks . . . . and God bless.

No, it sounds more like anxiety to me. If you tested negative at 7 weeks, that is a good indication of what your 13 week result will be. 95% of people who are going to serconvert, do so by week 6. What your experiencing does not sound like ARS at all to me.

Try to not symptom search or read into anything that you might be feeling. You are almost out of the window period, so try to occupy your mind with other things as much as you can.

I just spoke to the neuropathy people in NY and they said with the 100's if not 1000's of cases they deal with they have never had such early signs of neurpathy. I believe they said the earliest case was a little ove a year. Hope that brings you some peace of mind as it has for me.
