[|Human|] Hello,   I had a sexual encounter back in July where the condom had come off. I believe it came off as he was pulling out but not to certain if it came off due to the friction i felt while having intercourse. About 5 days later, i woke up with severe diarrhea that Ive never experienced in my life that had went away the next day and i also had a loss of appetite and the food i did attempt to eat that next day, had a strange metalic taste along with spotting....Ive taken several pregnancy tests and after taking them, i had all negatives. The spotting had continued along with thrush and Ive never experienced that along with the metalic taste which can also be caused from the dehydration however, the diarrhea is what scared me. When I went to the er, The Dr. did a pelvic exam and drew blood and I was told i had bacterial vaginosis and prescribed flagyl. Two weeks prior to that, i had started a new diet consisting of fish and high in vegetables however i had very little bowel movements...Im unsure as to whether that could be typical ARS symtpoms, from the diet, or food poisioning? Since that incident four months ago, Ive experienced muscle twitching in my lower back that has happened within the past two months, sensitivity to the light, pelvic pain. Does this sound like typical ARS symptoms? I spoke with the guy i had intercourse with and he told me he got tested after i asked him about it and he also got tested about 2 weeks ago and he tested negative for everything. Ive also been experiencing severe fatigue, muscle aches, difficulty sleeping at night, some instances where im hot which has been ongoing for two months now and more painful periods. Does this sound like ARS symptoms or could this all be related to stress....Ive also had a dream about 2 weeks ago where i was tested in the dream and told i was HIV positive along with very vivid dreams. Does this sound like typical ARS symptoms?? Please help as im worried and worrying has taken over my life
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. The only way to confirm your HIV status is to test your blood sample for antibodies against HIV 1 and 2 by ELISA. This test will relieve your anxiety and stress. The symptoms you have mentioned in your query are not of AS. Bacterial vaginosis is caused by anaerobic bacteria which are usually commensalism of the genital tract, and you have been correctly treated by Flagyl. I suggest you undergo the HIV test and confirm your status instead of imagining the worst and worrying unnecessarily. Thanks.
