HIV?

Hi, I am scared after eating the feces. Last week, I bought a bowl of human feces and eat it. If the HIV can affect me via the mucous membrance such as mouth, tonsil or alimentary tract?

Here is how HIV Is transmitted.  HIV is transmitted by having unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse or sharing iv needles to inject drugs.  Air and saliva inactivates the virus.  You will not get HIV from eating something.  including feces. But why on earth would you eat feces. That's not healthy in other ways such as bacteria, E Coli.  And is gross. I don't need to know why you bought a bowl of poop and ate it but recommend you never do that again. And if you start getting sick, go to the doctor immediately for antibiotics.
