Is the HIV virus more concentrated more in a persons sexual organism than his blood or saliva?

I remember my biology teacher said that if you are infected with HIV, even your saliva would have the virus but since the concentration of it in your saliva is so slim its difficult to spread it just by kissing someone.

Another thing is I also remember reading on yahoo answers saying, if you swallow a HIV infected man's semen as long as you don't have any open cuts or wounds the chances of the virus being able to survive in the stomach or mouth is really unlikely. Is this true?

And also can the HIV virus go threw a condom? If it can, would using 2 condoms be more effective in preventing entry to the body?

(When answering this question.. please provide some link or reference on how you got your answer so I can be certain your answer is correct. And please answer with the truth don't use the fear tactic to manipulate me like the news or the anti-drug companies do.)

My twin daughter came to me and said while she was incarcerated they had tested her blood and, well the worst news any mother wants to hear...your child is dying HIV!??? not my family, not my baby, does God really work miracles? Can he give it to me and take it from her? Shes only 17 and it was her rapist who gave her this damn death sentence...I feel so helpless...I need some support from somewhere no-one seems to care or just not talk about it and maybe itll go away or maybe because she has alot of run-ins with trouble that she deserves it. well im sick of that crap!!!She doesnt deserve to die because of her attitude is that what we do is throw our used children out and abandone them when they need us more???help someone she refuses to go the doctor she wants to go naturally i cant stand the thought of having to bury my special baby girl even if she is a little gangster does she deserve this are those certain people right?

The infection is usually sorted out at the hospital with antibiotics but is highly contatious.

If yes, how long will you see the result. And how will you control the odor that goes out of the mouth because of its pungent smell.

I found out this week that I am able to get a brand new insulin pump as the warranty has expired on my old one (IR1000 by Animas). I like the one I have, but I also want to try out the new one (IR 1250). It seems to have soooooooo many more features that the older one doesn't have. I was wondering if anyone is using this one, and if so do you like it? Is there anything you don't like about it? What do you like about it? Is it smaller than other pumps (if you have had others to compare it to; it says it is smaller than the one I have now)? I am excited to get this one and want to know what others think of it before I get it.

I had some bites ( Like Big and Red Mosquitoes bites ) on my Legs and Arms but there isn't any bites on my waist area. I had went to 2 doctors, they just say is some bugs cause all these bites. They jus ask me to air my bed and bed sheets under the hot sun. But i did follow their instructions, managed to wash my bed sheets, pillow case but there about 3 new bites appear when i wake up. I did spraying some pesticide all over my room. But there isn’t any improvement. Can anyone recommend me what other methods can I use? As the bites are really very itchy

but that is what the Doctor has him on now. We may can try the tablets later but would prefer something natural.

I have ingrown toenails all the time. I can usually take care of them myself but it sure is a pain to deal with. I have been trying to keep them longer so that they can't grow into my skin. But I recently decided that if I file my fingernails, why can't I file my toenails, just the corners really, to keep the sharp corners from growing into my skin. Anyone done this before or got any advice on why or why not to do this?

It looks like I may need a disc in my neck replaced or fused (C5, C6).
Has anyone had either procedure?
Either one better than the other?
What was the final cost? (We have 90/10 insurance, than goodness.)

Thanks!!
