>>>HIV EXPOSURE WITH A TWIST<<<

by shsm, Sep 25, 2008 10:10AM
Dear Drs,

I really admire the work you do and all the help you provide people. i also admire your "no nonsence" answers

Four days ago I visited a massage parlour. I have had hemaroids which have only bled very slightly in the past (the last occasion was probably about 2 days before I went to the parlour)
When I got to the massage parlour i got naked with the massage girl and we shared a bath which had soap and bath foam in it, there was NO sexual contact just back and neck massage with soap and then the masseuse used a flannel to clean my back. Then we got out the bath and I dried my self with a towel provided by the parlour. I then had an all over body massage (using baby oil) with a hand job on the massage bed. The masseuse remained naked while giving me a massage... 20 mins after leaving the parlour i noticed that I had discomfort passing water (burning feeling during and after) i have had no discharge though..

the pain passing water has calmed down alot but not fully gone, I have also had an itching feeling on my legs/arms/hands and have been waking up in the middle of the night feeling all anxious.I have also been feeling light headed, experienced nausea, poor appetite, and fatigued, sore throat and neck and sore tip of tongue. Doc I’m a mess!

I have read many posts by you both to other people regarding hand jobs, massages and all seem very very low risk activities but I AM VERY WORRIED about possible contact through any possible small abrasions on my skin or my hemaroids that may have been slightly inflamed or bleeding, (I’m not sure if they were) I just please need to see a response from you. So my questions are to you sir's,

1, IF my hemaroids were bleeding slightly without my knowledge, could this be open to infection from her potential vaginal fluid/bodily secretions (if any) through the bath water?

2, could any HIV/STI from either the masseuse or previous users of the parlour be caught through using the facilities, i.e towels, massage oil bottle, etc. so for example, as the masseuse would of used these things during my visit, is there any chance possible HIV/STI from these items could it be passed to me through the hand job?

3, The masseuse DID NOT masturbate herself during my visit but if she touched her vagina briefly and then proceeded with my happy ending, could this of cause a high chance of me getting HIV?

4, are my symptoms suggestive of ARS after just three days?

5, is a hiv test warrented?

many regards
