HIV case !

by help17, Nov 03, 2009 04:39PM
hi , i am a 21 years old male , i had a protected vaginal sexual intercourse with a sexworker of unkown hiv status, the next day i had a penile discharge and the doctor told me that it might be an std and gave me medications that made me feel better !
PS: i checked my condom after i finished the intercourse and it wasnt damaged for my semen where stuck at the base of the condom !

i got tested for tested for hiv "15" times in "6" weeks and all of them came out to be negative ! just did a normal cbc today and all came out to be normal !

3 days ago i started to have nausea , diahrea , and bilateral pain with warmth , my inguinal nodes are feeling kind of fuzzy but they are not hurting me , the doctor tested them and told me that they are fine !

my question is am i still at a high risk of having the hiv ? since i "might" have gotten an std and i having the above symptoms !

thank you !

Protected sex is just that: Protected.

As you state the condom did not break or slip off, you were not at risk of contracting HIV from this particular incident. For your own peace of mind, you can test at 13 weeks (the result of which will undoubtedly be negative).

Talk to your doctor about your symptoms. They are not HIV related.

are the 15 tests done at the 6 weeks reliable ?

You had protected sex and didn't have a risk of contracting HIV.
