protected (not 100% sure as one may have come of once as I was also drinking). About 5 days after returning which was also 13 days after my first sexual
and towards the back of the throat and up into the sinus a little bit. It is not painful just a bit tender and raw. I also have some reddish patches towards the back of my tongue. This symptom has persisted to varying degrees for about 2 weeks and is still present. I am slightly concerned that this might be primary HIV infection symptoms, to this date no other symptoms of note however (I am at approximately 4 weeks first contact, 3 weeks last contact)
The other thing that concerns me is that I was tested positive for Chlamydia. Since I am pretty sure I had no penis/ vaginal contact I am concerned that maybe I did. Is there is possible to get Chlamydia from receiving oral sex? Also If I did get some vaginal contact, how easy is it to contract Chlamydia compared to HIV?
This is an HIV forum - As for HIV you have to be the judge of your exposure and figure out if you had unprotected sex or not. If you think you did you can test at 6 weeks for a great indacation of your status and again at 3 months for your conclusive result.
Symptoms do not mean anything when it comes to knowing ones status
Thank you Teak. I was under the impression that Chlamydia did not survive long in the throat or mouth?
BTW, I have to say that I find this website extremely useful and valuable and commend all those who help answer the many and varied questions. Obviously a lot of people must find it very valuable to get clarity and ease anxiety about their situations.
