Fingering and protected sex with a prostitute

Fingering and protected sex with a prostitute

Hi
Soon 8 weeks ago I had an encounter with a Brazilian prostitute I met at a bar in Europe, first and definately last time I do this....
I fingered her briefly with two fingers, and used a condom and it looked intact after the intercourse, and i did not come during the intercourse.
She got really mad that I didnt want to have sex with here whitout a condom and that scares me a bit.
We did not have any other sexual contact.
The morning after i noticed a small cut 1-2 mm long, not deep on the finger that I penetrated here with, and it felt a bit sore and red.

I took a test for chlamydia about one week after this, and it came out negative. The doctor said that I didn't have to test for anything else, as I had practiced safe sex, and only moralists would care, and that they can shut up :).

As I felt safe I had unprtotected sex with my GF for many years.

I forgot to tell the doctor about the fingering, but I got very scared later when I tried to search the internet too assure that the fingering was not a risk situation, even if I had a small cut.
When reading on the web I managed to scare myself really hard, and it says that condom is only 95 % safe, and that it could be possible to get HIV from fingering if the skin is broken.

after nearly 4 weeks I got a cold, with runing nose, a bit soar throat but no feever. So 39 days after the incident I went to the doctors and had a HIV test. It came back negative. When waiting for the result I felt my throat feeling swollen and I almost had problem breathing, but otherwise I felt ok and no feewer (could it be from me beeing scarred?)Now I read that it is recomended to have a confirming test 8 weeks after possible HIV infection.

I have 4 questions.

1. Is vaginal intercourse safe or not if the condom is not visible broken after?

2. May I have got HIV through the fingering.

3. Is a HIV test reliable after 39 days (I dont know the test,but it was taken at a large hospital in scandinavia).

4. Do I need to worry and take another test?

Latex condoms, when used consistently and correctly, are highly effective in preventing the sexual transmission of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. In addition, consistent and correct use of latex condoms reduces the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including diseases transmitted by genital secretions, and to a lesser degree, genital ulcer diseases. Condom use may reduce the risk for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated diseases, e.g., genital warts and cervical cancer.

May I feel safe, or should I worry?

You never had a risk of contracting HIV. Finger and protected vaginal sex are not risks of HIV transmission.

Thanks for your reply. I have taken a new test at 53 days. Would you call it waste of money?
