Possible Risky Incident, Next Day Have symptoms Could Be HIV?

[LazyTrip]

1. Unprotected Oral With Escort, Recievee
2. Protected Vaginal 1 minute, She Was Good
3. Fingered Her about 2-3 Strokes, Have a cut on that finger from boxing(punching the bag) . Well it was cut in the morning seen her 8 Hrs Later. Maybe it sealed a bit.


Next day at around 5 pm, felt fatigued, kind of headache, tired and nauseated. Worried that HIV is entered my system and beginning to do its damage.

Should I get tested at 6 weeks?

Whatever caused your symptoms had nothing to do with HIV. Nothing you did during the incident you have described would have put you at risk for HIV transmission.

And just in general you need to know that the onset of ARS does not happen the day after the night before. The average time to seroconversion is 22 days. All but the smallest number who are seroconverting will do so within 4-6 weeks after an exposure.

This is happily NOT an HIV situation.

If your symptoms persist that is something to discuss with your doctor.

Thanks for the quick reply. but what about if her vaginal fluid entered my cut, and infected me, via cut

[Andy Velez]

Theoretically it could happen but in the real world of HIV science it simply doesn't happen that way. For one thing, the vaginal secretions which could have HIV in them IF the woman is HIV+ are in the cervical area and not where you would be fingering.

There's never been a confirmed case in this manner and you won't make history by becoming the first. Really.

So I should get this HIV thing of my mind. As everybody thinks no risk

[Andy Velez]

There's certainly no need for testing. And if the occasional thought comes up again about it, just let it be and get on with your life. Just because your mind drops in another thought doesn't mean you have to get all worked up and do anything about it. Let it and it will pass.

Make sure you always use a condom for vaginal or anal intercourse and you're essentially "covered" as far as HIV risk sexually is concerned.

WOAHH!!! I'm scared now

In an era of HIV and chastity rings, teenagers and young adults – roughly 75% of them – have turned to oral sex as a “less risky” option. But it’s not safe sex. And while it won’t get you pregnant, it can still get you into big trouble. For the first time ever, researchers at Johns Hopkins University have established a link between oral sex, the human papillomavirus (the same virus that causes cervical cancer) and throat cancer. That adds to a roster of risks already tied to oral sex: herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, and HIV…

This is scary news for the rising numbers of young people choosing oral sex over intercourse. One Johns Hopkins professor notes that since 1990, the percentage of male patients at his clinic alone who have had oral sex has risen from 50% to about 75%; for women and girls, from 25% to about 75%.

That’s a huge number exposing themselves to this cancer risk, among other sexually transmitted diseases.




See it is possbile by oral sex

Good bye.

It is possible by oral sex? IT is? So you say.

In the real world of HIV no guy has ever been confirmed to have become infected with HIV from getting a blowjob. As far as the risk for giving head or cunnilingus, there is much more evidence through very longterm studies of sero-discordant couples that giving oral is NOT a risk. None of the sero-negative partners have become infected. And the few cases of supposed transmission via giving oral have ended up being discredited in terms of solid scientific substantiation.

If you feel like frightening yourself that's your choice. We're not here to argue with you. Wrap yourself in your fears if you like. As for other STDs that's a whole other matter. Many of them are much easier to acquire than HIV and in some instance can be passed skin to skin. But this is an HIV website so for information about them you need to look elsewhere.
