    @Ross77 I did indeed enter at the doors furthest away from the desk. If memory serves me correctly at the time there was also a small door close to the lifts with direct access to T21.

    The Japanese style toilets did my head in, a degree in computer science was needed just to flush.

    Stayed there may years back and took ladyboys without an issue. Never needed to approach the reception desk on entry, security never requested an ID card. The lifts to the rooms was not close to the reception desk. A different security guard or receptionist may have a different view but the hotel policy then was not against them.

    Dynasty Inn, a wander down memory lane. Use to always use the building at the back. Must be nearly 30 years ago. Stopped using it when Dynasty Grande opened on soi 6. But looking at your photos I will give the Dynasty Inn another try. Especially as there is no restaurant service yet at the Dynasty Grande.

    How much per night please if you don't mind me asking?

    A question that gets asked a lot on the Poz.com forum. I will give the standard answer here that they give over there. Absolutely no HIV risk whatsoever. The protein coating on the virus deteriorates upon contact with the air, sweat, spit and and anything else., so even if the virus RNA itself is intact it cannot enter your cells and replicate so it just dies. Unless her cock went inside your arse or your cock went in hers, you had no exposure. It is very hard to transmit HIV, other STI's are a different subject. Much easier to transmit. Just get yourself screened for STI's as per any sensible schedule, but I would not worry about HIV from this encounter.

    Arrived back yesterday at 4 pm. After arriving at immigration I would say less than 5 minutes and I was through. The walk to immigration took longer. Good to see it has all been revamped. Many desks open, no queues. The baggage was fast, no long wait for the first bag to come through. I think all in all from the time I got to immigration it was less than 15 minutes and I was in a taxi. Walking through my front door before 6 pm. Less than two hours from touch down to home is a record.

    Thanks for that, Sukhumvit Square, it would have never came back to me. That article mentions Clinton Plaza also. Another failure, the last thing you needed halfway up Sukhumvit between Nana Plaza and the Cowboy was another gogo bar area. The Dolls House was about the only one in there that was worth a visit. All fond memories now.

    Anyone remember when it was a beer bar area about 15 years ago? What was its name?

     

    It ended in very unpleasant circumstances. 

    I remember it, a mate of mine ran a bar at the back. Partnered with a policeman obviously so he made no money at all. I can't for the life of me remember the name but I do remember it coming and down and being cleared overnight. Magnificent piece of military logistics. Not that there were any witnesses.

    Thanks. I'm actually in the market for Tafero-Em. Teno-Em has the nasty kidney-liver side effects that I'm trying to avoid. I'll check Chula pharmacy in case they also carry Tafero-Em.

    Teno-EM/Truvada can impact Kidney function if taken for extended periods. Unless you have underlying Kidney issues they return to normal once you stop.

    Tafer-EM/Descovy can impact bad Cholesterol levels and has been shown to cause weight gain.

    The benefits of Descovy over Truvada are disputed in various tests. Not as clear cut Gilead made out.

    Teno-EM contains the exact same drugs as Truvada and the Thai government facility that manufacturers it is WHO approved. The quality control is high. Do not let that concern you.

    Tafero-EM is Generic Descovy, which is approved for PrEP.

    Ask them for Teno-EM. That is the locality made generic form of Truvada. It should be half the price.

    As a general rule of thumb even in Thailand anti-retroviral medication is controlled and not readily available at many outlets. There will probably be some out there though.

    Well, first of all let me say how sorry I am that you got it. That's something everyone on this forum (I suspect) deeply fears. I get tested regularly just to ease my mind.

     

    > the chances of catching the virus by any method were between 26 and 50 times greater if you have sex with people in tbese 2 groups.

     

    Sorry, don't understand this. Which two groups?

     

    ....

     

    PS: Maybe what I'm about to say is all bullshit, but if (as I reported above) the highest estimate of risk in all the studies is .04%, that's a 1 in 2500 risk. If you multiply that by the estimated percentage of HIV infected Thais working in bars (there was a research paper on this), which is 10%*, then the risk is .04 x .1 = .004 == 1:25000, which seems a fairly negligible risk to me. * Note that the risk for LBs is a bit higher (male-male sex), maybe 15%.

     

    Of course for you, there's nothing "negligible" about it.

     

    One thing I got out of the San Francisco AIDS clinic article was that if they come in your mouth, swallow it right away. Don't let it linger as I have been doing. Since I'm a bottom but also like them to cum in my mouth when they're ready, I swallow a lot of cum.

     

    BTW, to people reading, there's a very good toothbrush I've been using for the last 20 years called "Sonicare" (made by Phillips) which has done wonders for my gums. My dental cleanings used to be a bloody mess because of receding and sick gums. No longer: the usual comment made by my hygienists in the last 20 years is "when did you last get a cleaning". I say "a year" and they can't believe it, because there's almost no plaque, and of course no bleeding during the cleaning. My gums are tough and tight because of the Sonicare. Unfortunately I've never seen it sold in Thailand.

    The 2 groups are the recently infected and the people who have clinical aids. The 1 in 2500 figure was one I had read and swore by. I belive it applies to people who have past the initial high viral load whose bodies are still strong and suppressing the virus. Only since my infection did I really start looking and reading. I found sites, medical sites which quoted that figure and then asked the retorical question, if HIV is so hard to catch why is it still around. They then answered it by explaing about viral load in newly infected people and people in the later stage, aids. Not sure how they worked it out but the figures I found said the chances of contracting the virus increased by between 26 and 50 times. That brings the 1 in 2500 down to a sobering 1 in 50.

     

    Luck plays its part in all of this, mine ran out sometime in the past 12 months, been doing it over 20 years. Life is for living and you have to be yourself and enjoy it. I may have possibly done things differently had I seen the worst possible scenario odds though, hard to say in hindsight.

    Very regretable in any case, but according to many expert sources, it's very rare and usually because of poor oral hygiene (bleeding gums, open sores...)

     

    http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/risk/oralsex.html

    http://sfaf.org/hiv-info/basics/can-i-get-hiv-from-oral.html

     

    From Wikipedia:

     

    There is an increased risk of STI transmission if the receiving partner has wounds on his or her genitals, or if the giving partner has wounds or open sores on or in his or her mouth, or bleeding gums.[5][6][13] Brushing the teeth, flossing, undergoing dental work soon before or after performing oral sex can also increase the risk of transmission, because all of these activities can cause small scratches in the lining of the mouth

     

    Average per act risk of getting HIV

    by exposure route to an infected source Exposure route Chance of infection Blood transfusion 90% [39] Childbirth (to child) 25%[40] Needle-sharing injection drug use 0.67%[39] Percutaneous needle stick 0.30%[41] Receptive anal intercourse* 0.043.0%[42] Insertive anal intercourse* 0.03%[43] Receptive penile-vaginal intercourse* 0.050.30%[42][44] Insertive penile-vaginal intercourse* 0.010.38% [42][44] Receptive oral intercourse*§ 00.04% [42] Insertive oral intercourse*§ 00.005%[45]* assuming no condom use

    Hi Deepnhard. I am the guy from the other forum. I use to swear by the exact figures you have listed but as of these past 2 weeks have looked harder for info. I found interesting figures concerning people who have been recently infected or who have got clinical aids. Depending on the particular site the chances of catching the virus by any method were between 26 and 50 times greater if you have sex with people in tbese 2 groups.

    Dispite practecing good oral hygiene i suspect you are correct. A possible gum issue or something may have been the route of entry, even though I was not aware of one.
