Anyone disgusted?

Has anyone gone through this feeling of utter disgust with a b/f or whoever that passed this on to you? Right or wrong, have you felt that way? Also, during sex ... despite your efforts to be healthy ... do you imagine him passing the virus back to you?

I really think I'm about done and want to give myself a fresh start for 2 years to see if I can't get the virus out of my system ...

Anyone else feeling this way or did this too?

Hugs,

Julie

Well the funny thing is Im not really sure who I got this from, Ive told 2 guys I slept with in August to get tested, and Hayden doesn't have it, but I haven't heard from Kevin. If he doesn't have it, I guess I go back to my last boyfriend, but its like so complicated detective work.

I told the stbx to get himself and the OW tested, but he is really stubborn, and very sure I got it before him and I got together..... 6.5 years ago??? I know it is possible, but c'mon? I did tell the one partner since too, and all seems well there.
There is an initial feeling of disgust, but once you find out how common it is, I just found it easier to get help for it instead of constantly worrying who, when, etc.
Hope this helps ;)

It does help, thanks so much. I just wonder if anyone's relationship has changed after diagnosis.

I have felt the same way. I was recently diagnosed only about 6 six weeks and have been dealing with mixed emotions ever since. I too think I might just give myself the 2 years but then abstaining for 2 years doesn't gaurentee anything either. My ex finance gave it to me and utter disgust doesn't even begin to describe how I felt/feel.

SO you aren't alone in feeling this way!! And it's nice to know I am not the only one having these feelings either! :)

I agree with all of you ...

Their responses we the same...
"Be very scared"
How great is that for re-assurance.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
