Yes i read it but it seems I've had to many similar symptoms to HIV. My left tonsil is still swollen along with my left node in my neck but everything else has cleared up in the duration of 1-2 weeks just like what i've read. She was on her period and even though she had a tampon in and i tasted no fluids her vagina had a smelly aroma so i stopped.
My symptoms:
1.Swollen tonsil with white stuff on it a day after oral sex
2. Lack of appetite, couldnt eat even tho I tried.
3. Diarrhea. (maybe from the 10 day antibiotics I had).
4. Lost weight ( I worked a very physical job and sweated a lot).
That's all the symptoms I've had dating from Sept 13 - Oct 2. I feel fine now and the girl said she is clean and is willing to go get tested with me. But I think she is lying to me or doesnt know her status. She said I have a GF 2 kids and no one has ever cmplained about being sick after being around her. I'm sorry to post again but im going for my test on Monday and really need some kind of hope. I'm young and it hurts that my first time could be my last time.
Thank you for your post halfoldman. Im worried because I have a bad tooth in the back right side of my mouth. I never was sick like this before. Is there any explanation to how i got sick within the same week and the on going swollen nodes and tonsils. I know you guys arent doctors and the mistake i made is my very own problem. I'm just so tore up over this its been a month and a half.
So if she was on her period and had a tampon on in the process and i still stuck my tounge in once then sucked her vaginal lips and licked her clit all this in about 10-20 seconds because i smelled a bad odor then her vagina let out this air release like noise. Your telling me that there still isnt a risk lol? Also if I get tested on at the 7 week mark and its negative is that a good indicator that I don't have HIV?
Guys I thank you for your responses. But I really feel like I've came down with something. How many of you would bet money on a negative test? I know symptoms dont really matter. Even if she is HIV+ what are the chances? Sorry for keep reposting but its just depressing to know that my first sexual experience could lead to this. I'm trying to build up the courage before I go test on Monday but everytime I think of the symptoms I've been having with swollen tonsils/painless node in my left neck and its pretty big but not big enough to see with the naked eye (tonsil still has a few white verlly small flecks).

Dear spark, greetings to you,symptoms do not show up so early, it takes 2 to 3 weeks, and usually fever for a week, I am not frightening you,but symptoms are not reliable. Dear spark, I am confident your problem is not HIV, you are paranoid.chances are very very slim.If you are worried take fourth gen test that tests antigen that appears before antibodies,its a a rapid test,takes ten min for results, take after 3 weeks and it will calm your worries, its very cheap test, dont worry yourself toomuch, you are ok,test just to reassure you,.probably in future you can cut open a condom,cover it in your tongue and do the act this is safe dental dam. I wish you well,take care and God bless you. Bye.
Thank you very much halfoldman for your support. I will take your advice and pray to God everything comes out ok. I'll update you with my status. Now I will stop badgering the forum and go on my way. Thanks to all for your advice please pray for me thank you.
I took a rapid blood HIV test today and the result was negative. I give God so much praise and glory for this result and thank you halfoldman for yours prayers.
Hi spark22,
I'm glad you had a negative result. I can explain why your tonsil was still swollen and where the white came from that was easy to wipe off.
It sounds like the bacteria causing your tonsillitis was resistant to the antibiotic that the doctor prescribed. So the antibiotic did not kill the infection.
However we all have good bacteria on and in our bodies, this is known as "flora." What the antibiotic did do, was kill off some of the flora in your mouth, allowing for it to be a prime location for a yeast overgrowth -- candidas albicans is the organism that is normally found in your body that causes yeast infections, when it's allowed to overgrow, then it becomes a yeast infection. Eating yogurt helps with clearing these up.
I hope that helps, and I hope you have finally gotten better. :) You may have just had a virus which doesn't respond to antibiotics either.
Take care.
Could i have really gotten symptoms so fast?
