I was so close to HIV！

I am one infectious hospital a doctor, the main group of patients is of all kinds of STD patients, because my family only me a male doctor, our families, most of the male patients with condyloma acuminatum is look for me to see a doctor, according to the department of other doctors said joke I always is a group of little boys around the empress, the proportion of people living with HIV in the little boy is as high as 50% above, Because of the operation involving acuteness wet wart, see blood is inevitable.

Despite various gowns and masks, I stuck a bloody needle into the back of my hand while under anesthesia during an operation on an infected patient. Didn't think much of sets, to sell the blood come out, iodine cotton ball pressure wound up to 5 minutes, then continue to do surgery, surgery after the process according to the hospital quickly got the blocking drugs, would be about 2 hours in the occupational exposure to take medicine, then check the blood for the record I was not infected with HIV, continue to go to work, department colleague said that I'm optimistic. I'm not worried. I don't think it's too risky.

Evening go home to have a meal not sweet, I know that is a response to a drug, and my wife said, she asked after the risk is very understand me, also help me to keep the family, after a week, drug reaction is very heavy, dizziness, nausea, anorexia, fatigue, diarrhea, almost can't go to work, was about to hide not to live, symptoms gradually reduced, I knew I had survived the initial adverse reaction to the drug, but the day after the symptoms subsided, my wife asked me, "What happened to your face?" I looked in the mirror and said, "Medication."

I knew it was not an allergy, but a virus rash. I panicked. It was the first time THAT I thought I might be infected with AIDS. I think this is all infected people initially some thoughts, this time people can't be calm, what thoughts are swarming came up, family, work, future, all the pessimistic mood, but surprisingly effective solution, even if I always optimistic, even if I understanding of HIV/AIDS are much higher than ordinary people, but still let me this day off.

After a day of adjustment, I calm down, draw two conclusions, first, is really virus rash, second, I take medicine these days weak, infected with some respiratory virus is also very likely, may not be HIV infection, a few days to check blood to determine. When two weeks, I checked blood antibody negative, basically can identify virus rash and AIDS infection have nothing to do, but completely eliminate infection is still very early, but the person has completely calm down. Thought is even blocking failure, so day, the wife understand me, just can't go to work as a husband and wife, if the measurement is less than the amount and antiviral treatment after virus, safety measures should be no problem, if the family is all don't know, it should not be difficult to continue to hide, work is inductrial injury, the hospital should be to safeguard, regular review and get medicine, I am very convenient in the hospital, travel abroad does not check blood, the only inconvenient is that there is no child, a long time will be urged by the family, maybe adopt a later can also, after another ten years maybe cure more cases, so people slowly relax. With the extension of medication time, less and less adverse drug reactions, gradually feel very good state of self, on the 28th day of medication, antibody negative test again, decisive stop medicine, stop medicine, found that the original do not feel so good when the drug. Continue 3 months, 6 months, 12 months had measured antibody, I know affirmation is negative, also be negative indeed.

I often share my experiences and thoughts with people who are infected to help them through this difficult time. To ask me now do not do infected acuteness wet wart surgery? Of course, be careful. Nobody wants to do it. If I do it, won't I become a master?
