hiv by oral and the tests

[worriedsick152]

hello,  

i had an exposure to hiv with a SW  in bangalore 39 days back. the exposure was protected vaginal sex and unprotected cunnilingus and fallatio for about 15 sec max. the mistake i did was to brush and clean my tongue before cunnilingus and i am uncircumcised. after about 10 days i started getting rashes in my genital region. so took a proviral pcr dna test on 18 day which came back not detected. now from 15th day to 31 day i had no symptoms, then my neck lymp nodes started to swell. on 36th day, consumed by extreme anxiety i confronted the SW and convinced her to take a hiv ag/ab combo cmia test which said non reactive with a value of 0.31. the logic behind this was if she is not infected then how the hell can i get infected as i am not at all sexually active. the question is can this 37 day combo test of the sw reliable and is my 18 day dna pcr reliable or not?

what do u feel about my situation?

only a test done 3 months post someone's last potential exposure will give them a conclusive test result.  there is NO WAY that you can KNOW FOR SURE what her actions have been in the past.

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal/anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

PERIOD

thanks for quick reply  lizzie. i really appreciate it. i know it was a very low risk encounter. but still  for my peace of mind does thhis 36 day hiv combo test of the sw confirm that she is actually not infected.( assuming she was infected may be a day or two before she was with me).
thanks in advance for ur reply. u and teak rock!

you were never at risk and did not need testing.
