Please assess my risk

[bournemistake]

Sometime in sept. I fingered an asian stripper. She didn't speak good English so she was new from China. During the incident there was a good amount of vaginal fluid. Ever since this day I have had this cough that comes on at night mainly, but sometimes during the day. I think she also might have accidently spit in the direction of my mouth when she talked. What is my risk?

[bournemistake]

Are asians or other ethnicities considered more at risk than other?

not familiar with the testing result return times in u.k. But anywhere from 30 min- 2 weeks, pending on type of test and clinic. relax and get tested.

hi
thx alot for ur advice :)
im from uk,scotland..and last encounter was on 24th of this month...so should i juz wait till the 13 weeks..would it b best?...and how long does usually take 2 get back results?
yeh cheers ...coz i hv been little worried over this..cant believe i was so stupid like tht...especially place like thailand..even if im clear of hiv i must also hv been at high risk of gettin some of the other nasty stds?

[ExtremeStress]

You had a risk from all 4 or 5 incidents. unprotected sex is a risk.  I don't know your country of origin nor when your last encounter was. If in the U.S., you have many testing centers and tests. you can test a 6 weeks to get a good indicator, but 12/13 is conclusive. Don't beat yourself up over this, just remember your mistake and change it.

Look at my post! I never called you a name! I stated facts and gave you a simple answer (look up the ways of trasmission).

"NOW That is some funny sh@t the guy who knows he got infected with hiv from protected sex is telling someone else that there risk is completely and utterly non-existent. vrider maybe you should listen to your own advice since your risk is completely and utterly non-existent to "

you too.

And thanks to everyone else who answered my questions without calling me names.

[bournemistake]

Well I was serious with my questions, and don't appreciate your attitude. You could have simply not answered instead of insulting me.

[ExtremeStress]

If you are going for this forum's most stupid question, you are doind a good job. The fingering thing is an understandable question (if you din't know means of transmission), but the lap dance through the shorts thing is just plain stupid. Quit asking questions on here and look up ways of transmission instead.

Also --- a cough is not a symptom. You have nothing to worry about. Even more so, your risk is completely and utterly non-existent.

[Teak]

You were never at risk.

[bournemistake]

Oh, and there was also a lap dance. She was nude and I had on Nylon Basketball shorts and cotton underwear. I had an erection and I wondered if a part of the tip of my penis actually penetrated a small part of her vagina. Wouldn't that be like unprotected sex? Can the virus go through nylon shorts and cotton underwear?

[bournemistake]

U don't think its odd that I've had a cough since this incident?

[ImStupid]

zero risk
