Dear Ann Landers, took my annual physical exam and was horri-fied when the results came back and I tested positive for HIV. I am a 24-year-old woman who has never had sex with anyone. I returned to my doctor in a state of panic and was retested. The re-sults were negative. It seems the flu shot I had gotten two weeks earlier produced the false positive. Please tell your readers about this again. It scared the living daylights out of me.
Hi! It's Margo here. I'd love to know what you think of the letters -- and the answers!
Also, any additional thoughts you might have. Thanks!

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:
Dear Readers, , forty-four, with a lovely family. I’ve known for six months that I need surgery. I have been putting it off until I’ve run out of excuses. The reason I am avoiding the operation is that I’m afraid of what I might say under an anesthetic. My husband is the attentive type who would insist on being with me every minute. If I started to talk, I could ruin myself. I can’t discuss this with anyone for obvious reasons. Please tell me what to do. There must be a solution, but I don’t see it.-D. Prest
