Oral Sex and HIV between 2 Woman

I thought oral sex was suppose to be 'safe sex'?  If not then why are we not being informed to use a condom for that practice too?  
About 3 months ago I had unprotected oral sex with a co worker of mine.
There was no blood involved, no visable sores and I'm really just so scared now that I might have contracted HIV through this exposure.  Is it possible?  And if so, how?
Thank you
Kelly

Thank you guys for your post.
I'm still waiting for my test results and since the insurance company hasn't come back to me as yet with any bad news - I'm taking it that all is okay.  Praying everyday for a good outcome to all of this.
You say that I had no risk, but why is oral sex regarding as no risk?  Sorry, trying to understand all of this.

It's to much to ask for when you never had a risk to begin with. Don't talk about living in the middle of no where, I live in the middle of farming area. Don't tell me they don't have a health department or doctors that you could have went and have taken your test.

I'm sorry you feel that way Teak and believe me this is the last place I want to be.  I live on a farm in the middle of no where, so it's not so easy to just 'pop out and get a rapid HIV test done'  I come here because of my concerns, worry and I guess for abit of emotional support - is that too much to ask for?

You've had time to go get yourself tested using a rapid test several times over and collecting your negative result. You didn't have a risk, but I guess this forum is your only form entertainment.

Thank you guys for your posts .... it sure does makes things seem a little easier to deal with and the anxiety seems to calm down abit too.
I'm sure if there was something wrong with my husbands test, they would have called him already or myself.  I've heard nothing more, so as you say 'no news is good news'  In terms of contacting them directly, I wouldn't have a clue on who or where I should call them, so I guess I just have to sit it out and wait.
It would be a wonderful Christmas if all is okay and I can get on with my life.
HansrowSenoj, how are you doing otherwise?  Since your test came back negative .... why do you still come to this site?  I know I wouldn't if mine did - too many emotions and fears.
Chat later
and thans for the prayers.
