Have you ever had an HIV/STD test???


I'm planning on taking one asap. For those of you who have, how was it, was your mind going crazy, was you nervous?

yes i have. i am a recovering drug addict and after i got clean i got tested for everything. i was very nervous since i was a needle user. luckily i didnt have HIV or any STD's but i did find out that i had Hepatitis C. that is something i will have to live with and is a result of my carelessness. i strongly urge everyone to get tested for those things.

Yes a few times. You have to when your pregnant!

no, and I work in a doctor's office too.

yes, you get them when you are preg. and no it was fine I knew i was ok

scared to death both times till the results came back

i was nervous as anyone would be that test is deciding the rest of your life from that point on.

Yes, quite a few times. No, I wasn't worried because I'm pretty careful. Hang in there and good luck!!!

Yes i have been preg. so its kinda mandatory. But even after my kids i keep them up.. I guess now adayz you just never know.. rather be safe then sorry.

yes
no big deal, they just draw blood with a needle
no, not nervous and actually i forgot about it until they called me with the results.

Yes I have and yes I was going crazy. The lab tests have to be mailed off somewhere in Timbuktu, so you have to wait like a week to find out.

when i get a new b/f i make them get them and i will get them also and if they dont get it well then they dont get none of me

Yes I had to have them throughout my army career. I was a little nervous but if you have been safe and choosey about your partners than there is really no need to worry. Relax!

Yep. A couple of times. No big deal. I wasn't worried. These tests are standard for some other medical procedures.

yes i have 3 times and i was equally nervous each time till i got the results so jus go for it bein nervous is jus a part of it

Yes, when I was expecting.

Yup. All they did was take a small sample of blood. I wasn't worried at all.

No I haven't had one...But good for you for having one, very smart of you... I wouldn't be nervous if I were you. Stressing over this situation will not change the outcome or make a bad outcome easier.. Just relax and don't worry about it, nothing to worry about until you get the results and even then, there may be nothing to worry about.

nu uh, cuase im all young an virginal an stuff *blush* , but thts a reallay gud theng to do i belive, an i wud if i ever felt i needed to 鈾?/div>

ive taken several. They are nerve racking, but so long as youve been safe, you shouldnt have anything to worry about.

I took my last HIV test on 6/9/07, hiv- and engaged to the most wonderful man alive..

yes---
about 10 years ago
i had to have one before surgery
i don't think i went crazy but i was nervous
i was very happy when my doctor called and gave me the results...negative

good luck!

I donate blood on a regular basis, so I presume that they screen for that type of thing. However, I've never gone specifically to have and HIV/STD test.

yes, several
