hello, about a year ago i had unprotected oral sex with someone. He didn't ejaculate or anything and said that he gets tested every month. Ever since then my body has felt funny. I dont know if its because i keep thinking about it so i feel like i get the symptoms? I get sore throat and canker sores in my mouth, I sleep alot now, and whenever i eat something usually around lunch time i get diarrhea. should i be scared about this because im to nervous to get tested?

Thank You!

No one has ever been known to have contracted HIV from oral sex and you will not be the first to do so. The chances of him being HIV positive is slim to none because he gets tested every month and oral sex is an inefficient way to transmit stds including HIV. Symptoms are not great indicators of HIV because they can be many things other than that. If you persist on being fearful of your exposure, go ahead and take a test for piece of mind although I think you were not at risk of it. If you do, make sure you get tested for other stds and check up on HPV, just in case.
