HIV symptoms
I'm in class and terrified. Last Friday night I had gay sex and the condom ripped. The person is someone who gets regularly tested and I was the second person he has had gay sex with. His in the military and has to be tested regularly. However he recently had sex with someone off the internet before having sex with me. He claims he used a condom and it didn't rip. But today 3 days later I have the most random pretty deep sore throat. It's really hot where I live and yesterday was the first day of school so I didn't drink as much water as I usually do. I was at school all day and by the end of the day my throat was so sore and today it's still there. It's really sore but that's it. Any thoughts?
Are you sure? The sore throat is completely random and very intense. 3 days is too soon for symptoms. Overall I feel great but this soreness is very weird.
