HIV? Help please
I am a 21 year old male who may have been at risk of contracting HIV. My first year at college in 2006 I recieved oral sex from a a girl who may possibly be infected with HIV ( I do not know for sure). It was nothing more then oral sex performed on me no more than 3 times.
So for the longest time now I have been expereiencing Diarrhea, I'm not talking a few days im taking months at at time. I have a scheduled colonoscopy this coming Tuesday to help with that, but lately I have been having night sweats. It started off as once in awhile very light but has seemed to increase, the last two nights in a row I have woken up sweating. Im not soaked by any means but just sweating enough to wake me up. The reason I am posting this is I know both these symptoms are major symptoms of HIV/AIDS and I am freaking out.
I know statisticly I am at a low risk of contracting HIV and these symptoms could be many other things but im still very scared. Any reassuring words of advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Oh one last question, what are the chances that a person can pass HIV through semem?
