Question Massage and reliability of duo test at 85 days

Hi,

Firstly I must say this forum is a huge source of comfort for me. I really do need therapy over HIv paranoi, i spend hours reading forums each week depsite a virtually no risk activity. In short I had a handjob with oil at a health spa (not escort agency) 85 days ago. Therapist was fully clothed. Last week I tested at your clinic and the duo test came back negative, both tests. My question, is a test at 85 days totally conclusive ?

On another note, I am now on holiday and had another massage today, purely professional, nothing sexual, I have a bad back. Is there any risk from a standard massage, I asked to see the therapists hands after the massage and they had no abrassions. My skin however was somewhat irritated post the masssage due to the friction. Is transmission impossible ? I vow never to have another massage again due to this risk.

Many thanks, and I will leave you alone after this.

James

Default Massage and reliability of duo test at 85 days

Hello,

A couple of points for you:-

1) zero risk of HIV from a hand job

2) the test you had is absolutely conclusive

3) no risk of HIV from a standard massage

best wishes, Sean
