hiv yet concern

well here it gos I had a encounter with anouther male first time for such . it started out oral him on me for probably 30 minutes than I beleave he used his *** as a lubracante for his fingure in my rear end he never succefully insurted his penis it was limp I beleave in but he did cut me with his fingure nail now the whole thing probably was 45 minnutes long befor I was out the front door . I developed a rash on my hands and feet palms and soles red with white dots ans swell but if I raise my hands above my head I can shake it off .my hands do peel though this is new stuff for me so a week after I had a full panel done every thing came back negative except herpes witch i must of recieved from my wife 10 or more years ago she has it to. so at 2 mounths and prior i went in for a few ora quick both negative than a week later i had a elsa done for hiv 1 and2 and viral load down to 400 nagative and undetectable than 3 weeks later i had anouther varal load done sensitive down to 50 undetectable
than a week later at 90 days post exposer anouther oraquick negative . I'm worried about the rash on my hands arms, and feet I was worried about tis purple growth on my neck and eyelid so they did a biopsy on the one on the neck cam back non cancerious told me it was a bunch of little blood veasels But again I thought thats what ks was but I m sure they would know the diferance at the lad right. Any way the one on my eyelid i found on a picture  from over 6 mouths ago so it was prior.

Both the tone and style of your messages (an entire follow-up "shouting" in capital letters) indicates you indeed need counseling, but this forum is not the place for it.  I gave you my reasoning about why you don't have HIV.  That reassurance is as far as this forum goes.  Discuss your fears with your own provider.  I won't have any further comments and will delete any further comments from you, because it is not in your interests to use this as an escape valve.  Call it tough love, but tough it will be.  Don't try.

I'm a little confused by your mention of HIV viral load testing.  I think you mean that you were tested with methods that have thresholds of 400 or 50 viral copies, and they were negative (that is no virus detected, meaning viral load - if you had HIV - was under 400 or 50).  So I'm assuming your viral load test was negative.  However, you should be asking these questions of the providers who did the testing.

Anyway, you really didn't need those tests and I assume they are negative.  The antibody test results prove you don't have HIV as well.  It is not possible to have HIV but have negative OraQuick (or any other antibody test) 90 days after catching it.  Therefore, something other than HIV is causing your symptoms.

And on top of that, the sexual exposure events you describe were low risk, even if your partner had HIV.  Did you ask him?  If not, do it now; if he says he is uninfected, it should help calm your nerves.  And please get in the habit for the future:  NEVER have sex, even intended safe sex, with another man without first asking his HIV status and sharing your own.  That's just as important for safe sex as using condoms for anal sex.

Please take any further questions to your own doctors.  They are much more able to accurately answer your concerns than any online source, including me.

Good luck--  HHH, MD
