Have I got HIV???
I had sex with an African prostitute while on holiday, I'm only 16 and would never normally do anything like that, but I was very drunk, and my friend brought them, so there was definetly a certain amount of peer pressure involved, not that that's an excuse.
Anyway, I did wear a condom, however it was far too big and very loose, although I don't think it came off. I was fine for over a month after, in fact I did alot of hiking, kayaking etc. 3 weeks of pure exercise.,. all done fine. However I then got a fever, but both my mum and dad, who I live with, had it before me, and I recovered fastest, which suggests I am the healthiest?
However, I've noticed pimples on my stomach, and have a dry cough (although its winter, so alot of people do) at the moment my tongue is also quite sore, towards the throat on one side when I move it. I've suffered from fatigue.. but all after a days work. Also had swollen Lymph Nodes under my neck, but this isn;t the first time I've had these.
Please help me, I'm killing myself with worry. I don't want my life to be over.

Ok thanks God for that... so theres no possibility Any Fluid could some how have leaked under to condom as it was not tight at all.
Also could somebody please tell me of any home HIV tests approved in the UK. I'm too ashamed to go to a GUM clinic.

LOL KS!!! no not at all ( that is late stage)
3months is conclusive, but as teak indicated you didn't have a risk if you were wearing a condom and it didn't break during vaginal sex, and as lizzie indicated no risk with the oral.

Finding red blotches on my body now, little red blood coloured spots on my body, found one on my leg, these aren't raised any kinda look like there under the skin.
How reliable is the 3 month test as I may go and have it... can't keep being so anxious all the time, I worried I might have KS or some other HIV related skin problem.

The condom did break whilst I was recieving oral sex, however the hooker noticed it straight away and stopped... what would the chances be of catching HIV through saliva?
