too worried to go and be tested for fear of being seen by someone I know

A few years ago I made some bad decisions and had unprotected heterosexual sex with a number of men in casual one night stands knowing they were highly promiscuous. Since then I have worried myself sick about HIV but too worried to go and be tested for fear of being seen by someone I know. In the aftermath of the Charlie Sheen coverage I heard about the Biosure self test and ordered one. It came the next day, was simple to use – taking the test was nerve-wracking …. A hundred “what-if’s” running through my mind. I am one of the lucky ones – the test was negative. The relief was overwhelming. My advice to anyone who is worried is to take it without delay. Money well spent and whatever the outcome ….better to know. Good luck
