HIV RASH??

Please could someone help me out here - I am really worried I have contracted HIV. A couple of months ago I had unprotected sex with a lady friend of mine (I know her so I wasn't really concerned about using a condom). Anyway what I am worried about is that I have just developed a sort of itchy, round spots (not raised) rash on the upper part of my back. Is this an early symptom of HIV? What does the rash look like? Where is it usually found? How soon does it start? I am really stressing so do you think this could be stress related instead? Thank you

We both had unprotected sex with one another 2 months ago but we are now in a steady relationship.  Prior to that, I have never had unprotected sex.  She tested negative 2 weeks ago so would it be safe to assume I'd be negative too?  Not drug users at all.

You said that neither of you have had unprotected sex. If neither of you have had unprotected sex then there is no why that you could have contracted HIV unless you share works.

Well I haven't been tested negative .... I am just assuming that if she tested negative and we have only been with each other and I never had unprotected sex before her, then I should be okay?  Yeah this flu is a bit of a shocker - was man down yesterday.

Nothing to do with Hiv seeing as though your both negative.A better way of putting it is that your both safer than the crown jewels.Every man and his dog gets those type of symptoms,just got over the flu myself.Stop being a worry wart!!
