Hello,
Please don't listen to that last comment by (IM) Hiv, dosent show up that quickly i mean spots on your face...come on now..that could be due to the stress of things......think about it ..the stress of a mother infected is enough now she wants to infect you and you went to a clinic and they want to infect you as well ..that could make anyway be 1000000% stress ..<----paysa.....
Have you heard of psychoanalysis <-- i think that is what it's called anyway....when you read something ..you start showing symptoms not immedately but some few hours to something that you don't even have....
Have her go to another clinic i mean private obviously that is where you come in to assit her since she has nothing i mean she's not leaving at home due to special issues....

First off, if she went to a dr. they have to use a clean needle by law.
Her mom has HIV?
She needs to get away from her psycho mom.
Vaginal discharge could be a yeast infection. She'd only get an STD if she had sex (very very very rarely is it ever transmitted any other way). So she probably has a yeast infection.
Tell her to wait for the results of the HIV test.
Unless her mom blatantly infected her with HIV, there's an insanely small chance that she has it.
If her mom did infect her, mom needs to go to jail. That's felony. In fact, if mom is threatening to infect her - The girl should call the cops and get a restraining order.
Who's needle is this? Doctors use clean needles so unless she's been doing drugs...I don't know what to tell you.
If they did an at home HIV (mail) test then the only thing she should have used was a lancet.
I mean if she's injecting drugs then...god only knows.
Statistically speaking. Less than 1% of women in the US have Aids. African American women make up the bulk of that.
Less than 1% of children have Aids. Most of them are born with it.
98% of AIDs cases are men. Most of whom contract it in jail, via drug use, or sexual relationships.
As Judge Joe Brown explained it; Aids cases in African American women are on the rise b/c the men go to jail, contract the disease, and go home to infect their women.
If your friend is a female, not using drugs, hasn't had a blood transfusion, and hasn't had sex her chances of contracting HIV/AIDs are near null.
Weeks after infection some patients develop flu like symptoms - however, that is not the norm. Most people do not have symptoms. The only way she would know for sure is to test.
She probably has a fever from worrying. That old addage about worried sick is fairly accurate.
It's easier for a heterosexual female to contract HIV than it is for a heterosexual male. However, HIV is easily transmitted during homosexual sex due to friction.
So chill out. =)

HIV doesn't have those symptoms...and doesn't manifest that quickly. I would say your friend is stressed and a bit paranoid, although if what you said about her mother is true, is understandable.
You shouldn't believe all you read on the Internet, there are lots of crazy people here.
Take your friend, go with her ( so she is more relaxed) to a family centre or GP and get the test done. It's the only solution I see.

If her mother is threatening to infect her with Aids, her mother is psychotic and she needs to leave the house. She may also need to get a restraining order against her.
There are no immediate symptoms to infection with HIV. Symptoms don't show up for at least 6 months, and the first symptom is generally fatigue. Vaginal discharge is not a symptom of HIV.

I don't know what to say. But i can assure you that if you go somewhere like planned parenthood, the nurses and doctors (who are all female) are very nice and understanding. I'm pretty sure they do HIV tests for little or no money. Sit her down and offer to go with her. The people there are very sweet. Tell her that you care about her so you are going to schedule her an appointment! Best of luck!

I think the only way she will know is if she goes to a doctor. If her mother did infect her than it is murder, and she needs to go to the doctor to get the documentation. I'm sure she does not have HIV. If she did have HIV it would not show up this quickly. It takes years to progress. But I would go to the doctor anyway.

All Bibles are translated through heretics. I have many many bibles and all take the equal or an identical textual content and translate them to suit their perception method. However I do not say this to deter you simply to be absolutely sincere with my reply. I used the NASB or the NKJV for my severe bible research. I pass into it with and knowledge that there are standards and phrases which might be mistranslated or twisted to suit guy made Doctrines. Three brief examples. KJV has the phrase Easter in in within the books of Acts.. Easter used to be not ever celebrated through the first century Christians and the Actual phrase is the phrase for Passover. Both the KJV and NASB speak approximately the church. It offers a mistaken connotation in that almost all persons consider of constructing or denomination after they see that phrase. That is strictly what the translators supposed. The phrase truthfully way meeting. I realize this turns out minor however while you learn all scriptures containing th phrase Church and skim meeting it is going to supply it an additional slant. Both the KJV and NASB look to aid a Hiarchal executive method within the frame. Actually the phrase translated Bishop way overseer.. The Overseer's process used to be to learn over the shoulder of the reader and be certain he learn the scripture appropriately with out a omissions additions or pronunciation mistakes. Deacons are desk servants, Minister way servants.. This concurs with Yeshua's instructing. Get a extra state-of-the-art variation of King James get a concordance Get a well hebrew/greek lexicon/phrase research and feature at it. Most verses do not require you to appear up stuff however while you uncover anything that does not look to suit the content material context and continuity of the leisure of scripture begin watching up phrases.

No. normally when there is a fever, it means there is an infection in the body somewhere. AIDS takes quite a while to develop. It wouldn't happen that quickly.
Visit www.webmd.com and plug in the symptoms. It's a free website that can give you an idea of what it might be. Sounds to me like chicken pox, measles, or it could be just allergies to something.
