I perfectly agree with otitis. I think it would be best to see a doctor.

1. how accurate is the genscreen hiv ag-ab combination in determining if u are hiv positive?

2. why is it that up until now above normal padin white cell count ko pag cbc me?

I'm from the South, I want to have myself check of possible infections...(STD) though i don't have any occurrence of any symptoms. Kaya lang most of STD are asymptomatic... any one who can recommend a clinic that diagnose STD's.

Also what kind of specialized doctor do i need to ask help? you're advise are all much appreciated...

question po muna: saan specifically located yung sinasabi mong "pimples" in your body? is it in the genital area ( sa may singit), around the mouth or all over the body? buong katawan mo ba meron? if it is located on the peri-oral (around the mouth) or genital area lang, it's possible na it could be Herpes.

 

for your questions

 

1. The HIV test has a high specificity, meaning na if it is positive, almost sure na na you have HIV infection. BUT (and it's a big but) remember na ang incubation period/window period of HIV is very variable. It can range from months to years. And may I ask, bakit mo naman naisip na magpatest for HIV? Ikaw ba nagrequest or yung doctor mo ang nag order nito? Just curious.

 

2. Increased white blood cell count (WBC) can be due to a lot of factors. Kahit nga sipunin ka lang e pwedeng mag increase ang WBC count mo. It could be that you have an ongoing infection which is totally unrelated dun sa symptoms mo ngayon.

 

My best advice is to go see a Urologist or an Infectious disease specialist. Mahirap kasi mag diagnose online. They will know better kung ano ang dapat gawing work up sa yo. The big hospitals have Outpatient departments where the list of doctors are listed together with their specialties. Pili na lang kayo doon.

Again, same advice as the person above you. And please practice safe sex always! Gud luck dudes!

Anyone here know any where to have a physical check-up as well as for std. Don't have anything but I would like to know for future reference.

[jester]

Never had a family doctor, since never really got sick that I needed to go to a hospital. Last time I was confined was around 2001, and that was for pneumonia. (overworked kasi )
