Having HIV OCD

[bellend2]

Hi, new user to this place because I am scared. I hooked up with a girl on the night of February 18th and another (different) girl February 25th. I received unprotected oral sex from both until I ejaculated in their mouth (both on different occasions as noted above). They are both around 19-20 years old and one is a student and the other from my hometown. Anyways, on the second occasion the girl I was with might of been on her period and I fingered her and used the same hand I fingered her with to masturbate myself. She then proceeded to lie on top of me while we made out naked and my penis rubbed up against her wet vagina a couple of times. On Monday night I had a small bother in my throat and went to bed, the next morning I went to bed and woke up with an extremely sore throat where it was at the point of hurting everytime I swallowed, so I have been taking tylenol everyday up until now. I went to the walk in clinic today but didn't tell the doctor of my two sexual encounters because I am embarassed about the drunken hook ups. So my symptoms are as follows: Sore throat (especially when swallowing), sweats and chills, very fatigued and body aches. The body aches and fatigue have mostly gone away but the sore throat is still here and my doctor said that my tonsils and throat are a little swollen but my lymph nodes aren't that bad. So my question is, from what I have said above are these ARS symptoms from my first or second encounter (I read on this forum from a Doctor that it takes 8-10 days for ARS symptoms and it's been just that many days. Also, was I at risk for HIV at all? Thanks so much for taking time to read this.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug abusers
Mother to child

Wow, thank you!! And these guys you quoted are fully licensed M.D's? Also, is the unprotected penis touching the vagina okay?

FROM THE HIV EXPERTS HERE AT MEDHELP:

"As you know from other posts about oral sex, our stance is that giving or receiving oral sex is not a risk for HIV.  Some others suggest that there is an appreciable risk of HIV from oral sex however, there are no convincing scientific reports which support these statements.  The presence of a burn in your mouth, or a sore, or ingestion of blood does not change this.  Still no risk an no reason for testing."  DR HOOK

"As far as HIV is concerned, there is no known risk of getting HIV from performing oral sex on an infected partner, even if that person's genital secretions get into your eyes or if you swallow"  DR HOOK

There is no debate (among experts) about the HIV risks associated with oral sex.  The risk is so low that almost nobody who cares for HIV infected patients has ever had a patient believed to have been infected that way.  Among experts, it's a semantic issue about using terms like "no risk" and "very low risk".  There is no difference between my or Dr. Hook's use of "low risk" and other experts' "no risk".
DR. HANDSFIELD

"And oral sex is basically safe sex -- completely safe with respect to HIV and although not zero risk for other STDs, the chance of infection is far lower than for unprotected vaginal or anal sex.  Please educate yourself about the real risks.  If you stick with oral sex and condom-protected vaginal or anal sex, you have no HIV worries and very little worry about other STDs. "   DR HANDSFIELD

"I am sure you can find lots of people who belive that HIV is transmitted by oral sex, but you will not find scientific data to support this unrealistic concern..."   DR HOOK

"HIV is not spread by touching, masturbation, oral sex or condom protected sex."- DR. HOOK

in the public HIV Prevention forum of MedHelp, TEAK and the other moderators maintain that oral sex in all forms is a zero risk activity. Would you agree with this assessment?  
I TOTALLY AGREE / DR GARCIA

The observation on thousand and thousand of observations is that HIV is not spread by oral sex (of any sort).  DR. HOOK

"With regard to the question you ask, I will repeat, as I’ve said more times than I can think- there are NO credible cases in which persons have acquired HIV through performance of oral sex- none!!.  The chance that you will be the first is ridiculously low.  You are more likely to be hit by lightening while reading my reply to you. DR HOOK

"HIV is not spread by masturbation, through oral sex, through kissing or other casual contact." DR HOOK

"There is no credible evidence that HIV is spread through oral sex, with or without the presence of cuts or blood in the persons mouth."- DR HOOK

"Oral sex. there is no evidence that HIV is spread through giving or receiving oral sex"- DR HOOK

"HIV is not spread through oral sex."  DR HOOK

"HIV is not spread through giving or receiving oral sex"   DR HOOK

Okay, thank you sir. No need to get tested? If not, how can I get rid of this anxiety and fear?

You never had an exposure and you're not having ARS symptoms. .
