Hi
I have recently got married and SO happy with my life right now. However, back in 2002 an ex-boyfriend's girlfriend told me he told her he might be HIV positive, which obviously scared the hell out of me. at the time, i went to my doctor and he said that it would be very unlikely that i would have contracted it as i was a regular blood donor, and they have to screen for HIV. Therefore i put it to bed. until a couple of months ago! i started thinking about it again, even though i know deep down there isnt a problem. i cant seem to get it out of my head. ive even gone back to my doctor, who said it would have shown up in my blood in 2002, and to 'forget about it' . the nurse at work has said it was 'cateogrically an impossibility' but its like im not believing them! i have given blood on at least 3 occasions since the incident so i know there is no way, but im just not listening! i even spoke to the National Blood service who said they would have informed me straight away if something was wrong!!!! i have told my husband about this who at first was very supportive and reassured me that all of these people are right, but now hes starting to get angry with me as im not letting it lie, even though deep down im fine! do you think it may be because my life has finally settled? i spent all of last year planning the wedding and moving house and now i need something else to focus on?! advice please!
