HIV from deep throating

Hi, I received a blowjob with deep throating from a guy I later found to be HIV positive. He had mentioned after the blowjob that he was a bit sick with stuffy nose and I remember that I felt the tip of my penis hitting the back of his throat(which, it seems, might have been sore). I know that the opening of the penis is where the mucous membrane begins, so I am worried.. What are the chances of becoming infected?

In your case there was no risk. When we speak of theroetical risks its more often those that take in the sperm oral but to date there is no proven cases of this happening.

Thanks, bmthbloke. It was this week. Do you think, though, that the tip of my penis touching his sore throat could make for more than a theoretical risk?

Practically nill. How long ago? Do some research on Google on oral sex and hiv. There are different sites that say there is a slight chance but the common consensus nowadays is that there is no chance to get hiv by oral sex.

However feel free to get a test done at 4 weeks for piece of mind.
