PAIN EVERYWHERE! WHATS IS WRONG WITH ME!?!?

I am 18 years old and about 6 months ago I had unprotected sex to a girl I hardly even knew and ever since i have been having wierd pains EVERYWHERE. After the first couple days i had pains in my groin both sides and after a week i got really sick with a bad sore throat. As the days pushed on the pain went up to my abdominal region and just randomly burned every once in a while in many different spots. Now the pain is in my lower part of the chest just below the ribs and all of a sudden i have been having pains in my neck and back. Not too far after that started, i have now also been having shooting, tingling, burning sensations in my arms, hands, and legs. It also seems like my arms, hands, and legs fall asleep really easily. I am in COMPLETE misery from worrying what this could be. Can someone tell me if this sounds like I could have HIV or an STD????

Hey man did you find out what was bothering you? Your post really describes what I have been going through for almost a year now. Apparently it is not an STI but I feel like I'm going to die sometimes. Maybe it's not an STI but it sure could be some form of bacteria, parasite, fungus, or even worse a virus. Anyone have any advice for us please?

I have had the same symptoms too and no one knows whats going on... This really suck! No one takes me seriously, they just say its stress. I know its not.

wow could it be fibromyalgia?
im not a guy but i know i hurt alful alll over
and have all kinds of strange body pains and burning and so forth..
i also am so tired of the 'stress' excuss from them.

Has anyone here been tested for fibromyalgia? That is definitely an option and I think that it would be a good idea to look into that if you could. Let me know!

I actually have fibromyalgia. There is no true test for this disease as well as no cure and very little treatment. Fibromyalgia is similar to a bad flu. You just feel crappy. Its unexplainable. Joint pain, head ache, sore throat, skin sensitive to the touch and the biggest symptom of fibro is widespread muscle pain. If you go to a general doctor and explain your symptoms they maybe able to help you find a physician that can diagnose you if they cannot help!

I also have a rare kidney disease and lupus which is similar to fibromyalgia. I have many medical diagnosises that I was given that turned out to be way off. I went to doctor after doctor just for them to either tell me I was to young and pretty to have anything wrong or it was in my head and I was looking for drugs! My point is, if you know how much pain you are in do not take any crap from doctors and let them turn you away. If you are in pain then they should help. Just go to another doctor for a 2nd opinion. Don''t be ashamed, get help because you could be causing even more problems!

My other question for you and what is going on is...are you having trouble urinating and with pain? Kidney problems can cause symptoms similar to what you are having. I was having very similar pains and that was the last thing I thought of because the pain was all the way in my neck. If you would have an infection and have had it a while it is in your bloodstream causing your whole body to react and try and fight against it. If the person you slept with had a yeast infection, she may not have known, she could have given it to you. Yeast infections can do crazy things to someones body!

I suggest looking up some of these things I talked about and read over the information to see if it sounds like what you are experiencing. There is also a place on WebMD (i think) that is called Symptom Checker. I refer to this always. It gives great info and will give you a list of conditions it possibly can be! Good luck. I hope something I have said will help. I've been through hell and back with no answers for years so don't feel alone.
