Dr Prescribed me PEP, Help?
I had unprotected sex 2 nights ago, he didn't finish in me and it was purely vaginal. He seemed pretty confident he didn't have anything, but didn't really remember the last time he was tested, so I was suspicious. Not because I think he was lying, but knowing alot of them are asymptomatic and only him getting tested would he ACTUALLY know..
This was the first time me doing this with someone I just met, and possibly a lack of judgement. I became immediately anxious because I am infact in the medical field and because HIV is not completely treatable it scares me so bad.
I called my Dr.'s nurse and she seemed very non concerned about it since they usually treat for people knowingly exposed to HIV+ people, and that's she's very rarely seen an HIV+ pt.
This immediately calmed my nerves, but she ended up asking my Dr and he said to go ahead with the PEP (Biktarvy).. So then my anxiety came back.
Is this treatment valid for me? It's unlikely I caught anything from him but it's better to be on the safe side. right?
