AM I INFECTED?

Hey,

14 days ago I had sex with a prostitute. She was 18 and she said she was new to the business (she started her job since 1st December 2011). I was stupid enough to do unprotected oral sex for her. We did have protected sex (using condoms), and the condoms did not break or anything. But, I also did finger her, to get her wet and when she was wet, I put on condom when my hand was (probably) still wet. Can I get infected this way?

The next day when I woke up I had mild diarrhea, and 24 hours after that I had sore throat. I got some Tylenol+ hot waters + tea and the sore throat was gone after 48 hours. 5 days after the exposure, I noticed some small red dots on my hand (visible under light), that are gone now (they probably disappeared one or two days after).
I was studying for my final exam so I was nervous about it and when I`m under stress, its usually associated with diarrhea (based on my experience with other exams & situations).

After my exam I Googled the HIV symptoms, and I figured sore throat, diarrhea and  rash are HIV symptoms. My diarrhea  which was getting better probably got worse after that news. So I freaked out and I`m really under stress now... My  diarrhea is not severe but I still have it (which is not something new, I`ve had prolonged diarrheas before) all the other symptoms were totally gone after 6 days. Now (14 days after the exposure) I feel really stressed and don`t know whether I`m infected or not. Any advice?

Nope. Ditto to ele636. No exposure of whatsoever

you do not have an hiv concern, oral (espacially for a girl ) is safe sex, so is fingering.
symptoms usually come 2 to 4 weeks after exposure and last for 1-2 weeks, during which most of the infected will sufer very serious fever, very serious sore throat.

Thanks for the responses andrew136 and Xp609pX... I don't know why I got the symptoms though :(

As you were told, protected vaginal sex + unprotected oral sex = No Risk. Your symptoms could be due to many reasons other than HIV. Most of the time anxiety related symptoms also resemble like ARS.

Based on the situation you described, you were never exposed to HIV risk

Thanks driver58 for your response.

[BOB2012]

Is that true that HIV virus dies in the air?

[Teak]

You don't have an HIV concern.

[BOB2012]

This diarrhea & stomach noises are driving me crazy

[Teak]

See your doctor if you are concerned it has nothing to do with HIV.

[BOB2012]

Tnx for response Teak. I should

[BOB2012]

Just another question for my information: if the penis touches the wet vaginal
(not inside). Is there a chance of infection?

transmission requires penetration

Thanks for replay Lizzie

Your symptoms are from stress as it's obvious that you never had a risk because you used protection and at no time did it fail you.There is no risk from fingering and then touching your penis to put a condom on,Hiv is not transmitted in such a way.You really have nothing to worry about at all.I suggest you forget all about this and enjoy the new year.

[BOB2012]

I appreciate your reply... I'm still wondering why I did that (sex with a prostitute) *sighs* I'm so stupid!

[RainLover71]

It's called being human but it's time to leave this all behind you and move on with life.The great thing is that you used protection.
