Deep Throating,Paranoid haven't necessarily seen anyting on this

Hello I am a student and had a MSM encounter- performed oral sex on another guy a while ago. It has haunted me ever since. Prior to performing the act I listened to the doctor's advice on this site and asked him his status and he said he said was negative. I realize that oral sex carries and extremely low risk but I am worried for several reasons, which are as follows: I deep throated his penis several times, until the point that my eyes began to water, but did pull out before ejaculation. I have read on here and several other sites and studies that the risk of hiv through oral sex is negligable, but have recently read a study that indicates that the tonsils are much more vulnerable to hiv than the mouth and are a possible route for hiv transmission during felatio. Here is a link to this study:

1. Can someone who has a better understanding of medical terminology tell if this means that the way I performed oral sex was in fact made a high risk practice?

2. Following this I felt that I had symptoms that were similar to acute hiv, which are as follows: By no more than two days after I had a red a papule on my neck, and about three to four weeks later I came down briefly with a bad headache and a very soar throat along with a pretty stuffed up nose. Then by about seven to eight weeks I had the worst case of oral ulcers that I have ever had in my entire life. Do these symptoms indicate acute hiv? I have heard that oral ulcers are the most specific symptom.

3. Lastly, should I get tested?

I realize that I am very anxiety prone and would sincerely appreciate some advise from the members who seem to be very aware of hiv transmission and medical terminology. I am very occupied with school right now and need some sound advise on what to do from here.

Thank you

John

1. no
2. no
3. no

Studies have shown that HIV is not passed via oral sex.

I'll keep this as simple as it really is:
1) No
2) ARS ( When actually present)symptoms would happen all at once 2-4 weeks after infection. They would last 1-2 weeks and end all at once. Not everyone feels symptoms. Some have symptoms so severe, they require hospitalization. Your symptoms would NOT be ARS over this episode.
3)No, not over this incident.
