Fear of HIV Exposure

[MrDave81]

Hi Community,

First of all thanks everyone here for spending time and helping people like me. The Anxiety is killing me...this is whay happened...

On 30th October, i had protected sex with a CSW. It was vaginal penetration sex using condom and condom was in good condition. Towards the end, i removed the condom carefully using tissue paper and masturbrated using the other hand (i was very careful not to touch the penis using the same hand i removed the condom). In another two minutes, i went to shower and washed off with soap.

Next day, i noticed few folliculitis on my chest hair and appearing for a day or two with pus filled on top (well this can be coincidental as i shaved my chest hair about 2-3weeks ago). But since then anxiety is killing me of HIV exposure. I have to wait another 2.5weeks if i need to test.

Today at Day 12, i am feeling a bit lethargic, tired and drowsy... no fever or any other symptoms. Just a feeling of drowsiness and eyes shutting like i never slept for 24hrs...am i at Risk? Please someone help on this...and i greatly regret what i did :(

Hi, as has already been answered on this thread.  You had protected sex and therefore no risk.  Since we've answered your question, we are going to close this thread.  Good luck to you

Today, i noticed a bump or sore on the penis. It's too small and not painful. I got freaked out and went to see Doctor.

The Doctor says it looks like Herpes but cannot confirm without a test and asked me to send for Bloos test including HIV, Herpes, Clamydia, etc etc

I'm sooo scared right now. Do i have HIV? Can get HIV and Herpes when using condom??

Protected sex mean no risk on HIV. The one who really know either your lymph nodes are swollen is the doctor. You being overthinking about this.please relax you dont have the risk.
