I was travelling by bus one day and I felt like a sharp poking pain on my thighs. I didn't mind it. Then I went home and saw a wound like poke there. Then I remembered the women sitting next to me had something in her hand. I am worried what if the women poked or injected blood with a syringe. Because after 4 weeks of the incident I had a swelling under my jaw but not sure if it's lymph node. It went in a week. Then after three months I had throat pain three times in two months. It always went away in 3 days after taking azithral 500 once a day. Then at the same time of throat pain I had very itchy reddish bumps on my thighs, back and flank abdomen. It lasted for 3 months. It's very itchy at night and morning when I get up from sleep. Then now after 7 months of the incident, again those bumps very itchy came back with stomach pain, diarrhoea for 3 days. I ate chocolate, chips, biryani, apple juice and ice cream in the evening and in the night the diarrhoea and severe stomach pain started. Then again after a weeks I had stomach pain with semi loose stools as soon as I eat, gas and burping as soon as I eat. I took metrogyl 400 and zanocin plus but frequency reduced but the symptoms were still there. Then I stopped the medicine and now I have semi loose stools once in the morning after breakfast, gas and burping but no stomach pain. It's been a month like this. When the diarrhoea and stomach pain started I went to a doctor and checked my weight and it reduced 2 kg. My weight was 74 kg it became 72 kg in just 3 weeks. My dresses are a little loose now. But from the start of diarrhoea and stomach pain, I didn't have loss of appetite and I ate food on time but controlled diet food for diarrhoea, no vomiting, no fever. Those itchy bumps are still there in the same places my back, thighs and flank, abdomen. I am worried if these are symptoms of hiv or hepatitis? I didn't take a test because I am worried what the report will say. What should I do? I am really worried. Are these symptoms of hiv or hepatitis?
