Hey doctor, I was previously concerned about my HIV status and was advised to take a test after 28 days. I took an HIV Duo 4th Generation test after 22 days. Can you review my attached report?

I had an exposure at a massage parlor around 6 months ago where oil was poured on my penis, and a handjob was given, followed by touching inside a vagina and immediately touching my penis. I had sex with my partner 11 days after the exposure. My partner has been experiencing constant diarrhea, a red rash on her back and chest for the past 2 weeks. I have had multiple 10-panel tests, including HIV 4th gen, HIV RNA, gonorrhea, herpes 1,2, Hep A,B,C, and syphilis, all coming back negative at 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months post-exposure. Can I completely relax with my 6-month negative tests and 100% consider that I am not infected with HIV and didn't transmit it to my partner?

Recently, I had sex with an escort. The condom broke just before insertion, and we immediately changed it. Could this have exposed me to HIV?

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and have difficulty urinating. I was given antibiotics for a UTI, but they haven't helped. I've been advised to hold my pee for 4 hours and then use a catheter to release it. This is very hard for me. What can I do to ease the pain and improve my situation?

I accidentally swallowed a broken tooth and feel a pokey sensation in my chest. The break happened last night, and I haven't used any medication or seen a doctor about it. Is there anything I should be concerned about?

I've been having severe anxiety attacks over the past year, and my doctor prescribed SSRIs for some reason. When were you prescribed the SSRI? How severe were any side effects? Have you used anything besides the SSRI for this? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?
