To Bongster

What you say is correct and incorrect at the same time. It is correct that condom will burst if banged upon. But you did not consider that condom can also tear if subjected to metal pressure such as jewelry. Rings , etc. especially when you first wearing the condoms.

If the condom is torn or slashed, this will leave tiny holes or big cuts depending on how severe the condom is pressed against the metal.

This tiny hole is difficult to notice.

Thats why be careful when wearing condoms.Avoid getting drunk or get drugged at all costs.

I just bought a few test kits at this site. Tested negative. Somehow i think herpes scared the shit out of me. but i tested negative on these kits. at least more relieved...

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Hmm bro the tested kit is for the HIV right? that is not 100% accurate, unless u are very sure the kit is not contaminate when shipping.

Or was it for the herpes? I dont remember seeing any test kit on herpes on the shelves.

Pls clarify.

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Nope not Herpes test kits already tested positive for herpes. So every worried for HIV also. By the way, can i find out if HIV sypmtoms is more extreme? As in fever is normally high fever? Headache is acute headache? and stuff? Muscle ache is normally very painful after sports kind of muscle ache? Night sweat is accompanied with fever?

Re: All you need to know about HIV

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

To All Bro,


Herpes is not that dangerous. In a matter of 2 weeks time, you will feel herpes symptoms if you are infected ,unlike HIV.

The Herpes can not be cured but the pain will only be temporary. As medications can help. Once the pain subsides, the virus will live in your nerve points, laying dormant. and will re surface again later on.

Herpes cause uncomfort. With medication, it will help to ease the pain.

It is HIV that you need to worry. It will turn you to living zombie and kill you off,

slow and painful death. The real nightmare. Most frightening, it is not EASILY detectable because you will have little or no symptoms for some/long period of time.

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

bro. that really depend individuals. Different people have different immunity system. Some have no syptoms at all.

to be sure, it is better to seeks professional advice :)

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Herpes is "Dangerous" of course. it is not dangerous to oneself in a way coz it will not kill you, but it can be spread easily to other family memeber.. and if u have a kid at home.. u really have to be careful with it. there were afew case where mothers pass the virus to the infant thru birth which causes the baby to be blindalthough it is rare nowaday..

and the longer u have it, the attack last shorter and u recover faster.. but it stays with you for the whole life.

For HIV, it is the mental torture that many of us cannot bear with rather than the physically torture..

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Can HIV and other STDs be transmitted through Chinese Acupuncture where they re use the needles ? Why is it that people who has had acupuncture within 3 months are not allowed to donate blood?

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

The answer is theoretical yes. However, there is no evidence that HIV has actually been transmitted via accupuncture.

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

As sam said theoratically yes HIV can be transmitted this way. However most reputable sinsei do not reuse their needles. So far those I been to uses those disposable needles sealed in a foil much like those stringe needles and dispose of them after use.

The rule that people not allowing to donate blood if they have acupuncture within 3 mths is probably due to health agencies in singapore do not have strict control over acupunture practices so to be safe a 3 mth period is imposed.

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Even worse.. it is also theoretically possible that it can spread thru barber blades

Re: All you need to know about HIV
 

Hmm...guess it depends on luck than. In that case tattoos and ear piercings etc all should close shop liaoz. :rolleyes:

My advise go to a reputable place for any kinda stuff. :cool:

ps: The HIV virus is known to die very fast once outside the body.
