A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
New Brunswick, NJ

I am in no way a drug user. However I went to Vegas for a week and unfortunately I smoked a bong which I thought was pot. Later I found out I was smoking meth. I am extremely disappointed in myself I should never have trusted a stranger. He also did a booty bump in my ass. Which later I found out is another way to get meth into your system.this is the first and most definitely last time I will ever do something like that. My question is this going to affect my viral load cd count? My next test… read more

Brad as far as your numbers you should be fine unless there's some stress or infection from the sex that you had with this person. What concerns me more is the inclination to have sex under the influence with a complete stranger. That prompts me to question whether or not you're doing okay. Perhaps seeking a counselor or a therapist or support group because my concern is that you may bounce back and do this again even though you say you will never do it. Please think twice before having sex with a stranger and if so make sure you ask all the right questions.

Grow up and smell the coffee,I always tell people when you play you pay ! Meth is something you don’t play around with or even having sex with some stranger! Anything could have happened! Plenty of other ways of having fun !

With all due respect @A myHIVteam Member
I don't believe promiscuity is a part of you. Letting yourself free like that throwing caution to the wind. Get tested earlier than scheduled to remain on top of things and forgive yourself because the flesh is weak, and this is what gets us into trouble that we don't want. I get you.
I am hoping this brief fling with bliss was well worth the trip. Take care of what's important, Now! Aloha!
