There is nothing in what you describe that poses a risk for the transmission of HIV. Please read our Welcome Thread to learn more about how HIV is and is not transmitted.

That said, all sexually active people should have a full STD screen at least twice a year. A full screen includes an HIV antibody test. If it's been a while since your last full screen or if you've never had one before you might consider making an appointment with your doctor or local clinic.

Hi ,

What do you mean is though i am not at risk but i shld get tested is it ?

IN,

You do NOT need to test over the specific incidents you bring to this forum.

However, if you are sexually active, you need to have complete sexual health care check ups at least once a year. Sexually active means having sexual intercourse (putting your penis inside someone else's body). If you are not yet sexually active, you do not need sexual health check ups yet. They can wait.


You need to be using condoms for anal or vaginal intercourse, every time, no exceptions until such time as you are in a securely monogamous relationship where you have both tested for ALL STIs together. To agree to have unprotected intercourse is to consent to the possibility of being infected with a sexually transmitted infection.

Have a look through the condom and lube links in my signature line so you can use condoms with confidence.

And I trust you've already read through the Welcome thread as Matty asked you to do?

Hi Ann ,

Thanks for the post and advice.. n i appreciate and understand that...

Having said that i have been testing myself every 2 month and never had intercourse..

but these kind of freakish things scare me.. as in Last two incidents my penis was not at exposure .. but yes i smooched and licked girls breast and exactly 35 days i am feeling ill i.e. having diareheaa , stuffed nose ..throat infection fever.. red itchy spots ... cough all at the same time..

i have been regular to this wonderful site and felt that all advices by you people were 100%  true.. but you know human tendency is to get something  out of nothing...

I was okie till 2 days back n was living my life normally

See your doctor, this is in no way HIV related.

hi rapid..

thanks .. but have read that these symptoms may be coz of HIV infection isnt it true ??

[RapidRod]

Your symptoms could be from several things, but what we do know is that it's not from HIV infection.

thanks so that means i shld nt be testing.. if u think otherwise pls advice as i am gonna test and get this out by tommrow

[RapidRod]

There is no reason to test. You didn't have a risk involved.

You haven't had intercourse and you test every two months for HIV.  That there tells the whole story.

Licking a girl's breast and smooching should not trigger these episodes you have.
You get HIV from UNPROTECTED intercourse.  Use a condom and that's it, that's all you need to protect yourself.  Since you've been here before you know this.

Getting sick is not a freakish thing.  Associating everything in your life to HIV...now that's freakish.

Please get help, because living your life in fear of HIV, when its very simple to protect yourself, is no way to live.

Sae.
