What are my chances

Hi, I recently slept with a street hooker in the Philippines, My condom broke and i  may have had signs of genital herpes.  3 weeks later on my return to Australia I had Bad Diarrhea, then suffered sore throat, swollen glands in the neck, headach dry cough and general feeling of being unwell. This lasted for about 2 weeks.

This happened 3 months ago and i have just beed for a HIV test and must wait 10 days for my results,, I am **** scared and suffering alot of anxiety..

I realise i have most of the Symptoms and in the right time frame, I also realise it could just be from a long flight and being exhausted..

My delema is the odds could be greated due to the herpes sore, yet i am hoping that due to the philippines having one of the lowest rates that she was not positive.

Any thoughs..

Philippines is one of the fewest HIV+ people in the world. I grow up there and the only common STD I know over there is gonorrhea which is curable. So relax I'm sure it will be negative and next time you come to the Philippines spend a little bit more money and go to a high end escorts. I know some clubs in Manila test their escorts. But nothing beats abstinence and monogamous relationship. I hope this helps.
