Cunnilingus with a Sore Throat + Alcohol

[JoelBlaine]

Hello, and thank you in advance for your help and efforts educating people around the risks of HIV.

Im worried because of a possible exposure i had 6 days ago.

I performed Cunnilingus on a Tijuana Sex Worker of unknown HIV+ status for around 10 minutes. Now, i have been reading about the risk of transmission by fellatio / cunnilingus, and generally speaking, i found that the risk is 1 in 10,000. (Very Low, assuming she was HIV+)

However, im asking because i don't know how much my risk increased because of the following reasons:

- I just had a cold and had been coughing very hard that day, so i had a very irritated throat / sore throat and I swallowed a bit of vaginal fluid.

- I had a couple of beers before the act. I read that alcohol disables enzymes in saliva that help to prevent the HIV infection via oral sex.

Im very worried because i don't know if my risk went from 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 10 or something like that...

Was my risk very high? Should I get tested?

Thanks for your time.

I think you are right. Its just that anxiety and fear can get some of us... Im starting to feel better with my results on hand and i will move on.

Thanks!

You never had an exposure in the first place.

I took a Duo Test (Antigen Antibody 1-2) at 4 weeks, came back Negative. Took the test because i had some symptoms like fever, sore throat and muscle aches two weeks after my encounter. Looks like the were not ARS related.

Do you think i can move on and forget about this incident?

Got it, Thank You

No risk what so ever.

Hello Teak, thanks for your reply.

One last question

Even under the circumstances that i described, do you consider that my risk is negligible?
