I had realtions with a transgender. I used protection during anal sex, and there was no breakage in the condom during sex, but I kissed deep and hard with her. At one point she sucked my lip so hard I though I was bleeding or that she might be bleeding. I think I tasted blood. I do not know her HIV status, and I fear that I have been effected. .

What part of you didn't have a risk is it that you don't understand. You've never done anything to put yourself at risk of contracting HIV.

* Anyone who continues to post excessively, questioning a conclusively negative result or no-risk situation, will be subject to action by MedHelp. Conclusively negative results or a no-risk situation will be based upon the criteria established by MedHelp’s doctors. Action will be taken as follows:
* After excessive posting, a warning will be issued by MedHelp
* Continuing to post regarding the negative result / no risk situation will result in a 3 day suspension
* Continuing to post upon your return will result in a permanent ban.

I respect u teak , but only i want to tell u that S** r*****( i don't want to name it) has developed this test whose result is just positive or negative( both for HIV 1 & HIV 2), i don't know much abt medical science.So its only for diagnostic.Because otherwise there is no use of it.
also can u give us a link where u have seen person tested negative on this test after 2- 4 week has been found positive after 3 months on elisa??

Sure it would come out negative it's an unapproved test and not used for diagnostic use. As you were told you didn't have a risk.

ppl WILL lie ! !

if you were a man...married...having anal sex with other men...contracted hiv...would you tell your wife and family that you were having anal sex with men or that you kissed someone?

kissing does NOT transmit hiv.

It is not a verified documented exposure. If HIV was transmitted in that manner we would have millions of people infected each year. Saliva has over a dozen different enzymes and proteins that inhibit HIV transmission.

just i had a query in general,
why then cdc reported a case of 1 person  having infected by french kissing?
in that case also no body had pint of blood moving from 1 mouth to other (even they have oral problem)

i respect u all , only this was just a medical question as to what made cdc to include that case.

NO! as Lizzie said saliva is not infectious. Hence, there is no risk for oral sex too.
