Please help, I did something very stupid in 1999 I had oral sex preformed from a street prostitute. Without a protection. She used her nails somewat on my penis as she sucked I quickly ended it but the next day my penis did have scratches. I am to afrid to have an hiv test but have been very worried sick since then.
Thank you for your words and help

You've worried for six years over a non risk situation? You'll be hard making me buy that story. YOU DIDN'T HAVE A RISK...

I know it seems crazy and thank you for your response what I can not get out of my head is the scratches on my penis the next day and my fear of her having cut lips.

Then I would suggest you see a mental health professional to help you get over your worries.

Just so we're absolutely clear here about this incident. there has never been a documented case of transmission from receiving oral sex.
And scratches notwithstanding we can say with assurance you aren't going to make history by becoming the first.
There's no need for testing nor for further concern about this incident in relation to HIV.
Period.

Thank you much Andy, I will try to quell my fears it i just the scratchs and the thoughts of her lips possiblybleeding but it has been 7 years and my health has been very good no sickness

This is all about thoughts and feelings and nothing based in HIV science. You were not at risk. Get over it, no kidding.
And just make sure you always use a condom for intercourse and you'll be fine as far as HIV is concerned.
You should also as a matter of course do a full STD panel if you are sexually active. That means testing at least once a year and every six months is even better.
Cheers,
