My daughter (age 4) was diagnosed in January after scoring 20/100 in her right eye on a routine screening. The Doc prescribed glasses and Atropine drops (to be used in her strong eye). I noticed, today, that her "good eye has started wandering while the weak eye stays fixed. Is this normal or a reactionto the atropine drops?

Hi, I need advice please.
I recently used a public toilet and when i wiped myself I noticed the tissue was wet. I looked at the roll I had used and it had previously dropped down the toilet. I know the chances are remote but I worry that It had been dropped down the toilet by a HIV+ lady while she was menustrating.
Could you answer a few questions for me please
a) Could my mucous membrane absorb the virus with one wipe (I have thrush so slightly enflamed down below)?
b) Would the water in the toilet be able to dilute the virus at all, thus making it less infectious?
c) Do I need a test?
Ive read you cant catch HIV through environmental surfaces but I dont Know If this includes wiping them on a mucous membrane!
Thankyou in advance for your time

I'm a 24 year old male (from Chennai). I experience symptoms such as breathlessness, pounding feel (in the chest), etc. when I get anxious (such as being involved in a tense situation) or excited (such as attempting to sing in a party, getting to the stage to receive an award, etc.). Once I calm down, these symptoms disappear and they generally don't last for more than 2 - 3 mins. Sometimes I feel like being unable to breathe for a fraction of a second but get normal after that. I have experienced these symptoms several times over the last 7 years or so. I also experienced palpitation once in Dec 2005 (lasted for about 15 mins) and once more recently in July 2010 (lasted for an hour). For long, I thought I was perhaps suffering from a heart problem (I never met a doctor though), but off late, I learnt on the net that there's something called an anxiety disorder whose symptoms are similar to cardiac symptoms. That had me wondering if I too could be sufferring from an anxiety disorder. I want to meet a doctor to get myself checked up. However, for some reason, I feel nervous about meeting a doctor. I fear that on entering the doctor's room, I might get tensed and experience breathlessness, palpitation,etc. I feel if I can contact the doctor over email/phone,etc and introduce myself before actually meeting the doctor, I would feel better. Since I live in Gopalapuram (Chennai), can someone help me in this regard?
