On tuesday I'm going to get tested for HIV and fully screened and I'm shitting bricks. I'm so scared that I'll have HIV like I've been awake at night and being sick thinking about it. What do they do to test you? Everyone says "Its unlikely" etc but what if i have got it? I'm soo unbelievably scared, I might not go and get the results. I've slept with 14 men, quite a few of which without condoms which i know is stupid and my first boyfriend cheated on me loads with girls who had slept around without condoms etc.

I get paranoid about sti's and stuff and i've only been with one person.
Try not to stress yourself too much hun. I'm sure everything is going to be fine.
You're doing the responsable thing by getting tested and it takes a lot of guts to do something like that and face upto reality.
Sorry i'm no help as i have no idea how they will test you but good luck and i hope everything is ok for you.
Good Luck.

Obviously you're not happy not knowing, so knowing must be a good thing. The chances are you haven't got HIV, so chill out, at least you're now doing the responsible thing by going for a test.

I think the chances are low and you'll be fine hun! As the others have said at least you are being responsible. I went thru the same-I slept with a few men without condoms and decided to get checked. I now wouldn't dare risk not using one.
I have to phone up for my sexual health check results tomorrow... I'm quite nervous

*hugs* at least it's over now, you can breathe a huge sigh of relief and feel extremely proud of yourself for being responsible and going to have it done. Good luck for the results
