🆘Needle stick while tattooing a client 🥺😞
Hello people
I’m a tattoo artist. I just stang my hand with a tattoo single needle while doing tattoo on a client. I’m so scared, and don’t know what to do. What if I get transittive blood disease like HIV from her? How to prevent it? Is there a chance to prevent or it’s too late? Please tell me what to do I’m panicking.
Update: I went to ER the same day they prescribed me anti HIV medications like Truveda and Isentress to take for 28 days and I started taking both the same day. Will these medications help me prevent infection if she had Hiv? Or is it late? I contacted the client she doesn’t seem to be willing to do a test as she is avoiding hospitals and ERs now as her mom is sick. I just don’t know what to do. I feel like my life is about to collapse and I can’t do anything. I will retest in 3 months and 6 months to make sure I’m clean but with this level of anxiety I don’t think I can wait for that long just to know the answers, the stress is so high I doubt I can make it. The client refuses to do tests even after I offered to pay her for that. She is making an excuse that she refuses to go to ER or hospitals as her mom is sick. She even refuses to do home tests. I’m suffering without knowing what to expect, it can ruin my life if she had it and transmitted it. Why is she refusing to do tests if she is saying she is confident she doesn’t have any diseases? No I can’t learn to live with it, don’t tell me that, It’ll end my life. I can’t have babies, have my job that I love so much, I can’t be normal and all because she didn’t take responsibility. I’m lost at this point and don’t know what to do. My mind is a mess, I haven’t eaten since that day, I can’t focus on life, on anything. And living like this, suffering for 6 months just to know my results is like a nightmare. I just don’t know what to do, feeling in despair and hopeless and can’t even talk to anyone about this. 😩😩😩🥺🥺🥺😢😢😢😞😞😞He
