Hello.   MedHelp adheres to the position of the CDC as well as the input of expert physicians that HIV is only transmitted through unprotected vaginal or anal sex, the sharing of needles, or from mother to child. Our members have accurately told you that oral sex is not considered a risk for HIV transmission.  As your question has been answered, we are now closing this thread.  We wish you the best of luck and health.

Saliva inactivates HIV so you had zero risk and wasted your time testing.
Your self-diagnosed symptoms are the product of your fear getting the better of your reasoning. You have no medical training, so it is time to stop pretending you can diagnose disease.
Go back to your happy life instead of living in a frightening pretend world where science is just made up.

Thanks for the answer, but I would like if you could give me a proper reference to a fact pointing out that saliva unactivates HIV, and also what could be the course of persisting symptoms even after series of antibiotics

I already explained the symptoms, so kindly reread my post instead of repeating or rephrasing your question. Any disease you have is not HIv but there is an std forum or your doctor if you feel something is amiss.

If you want a scientific journal explanation of how saliva interacts you won''t find it here - the doctors left a few years ago and we are not researchers.

Thanks for the help,just to be clear about what you're saying, if saliva inactivates HIV, why is there a risk from oral sex,deep kissing,and breastfeeding.

No one in history got HIV from oral or kissing, but if you want to believe otherwise you will have to discuss it with whatever source is giving you that faulty information. No one here cares who or what your people are or say respectively.
