Help???

Im a female and I try to be very protective of what i do becuase I do acknowledge the rick of hiv.
My question is... My boyfriend of 10 years off and on is currently sick... He woke up thursday morning and said he neck and upper back were hurting and he felt like his hold body was hurting... he felt him self getting sick..  the next couple day he drank orange juice and fluid to try and fight it. Sunday night his throat became sore and he started feeling really bad... by Monday morning he has a cough.. Severe body pain... He had slight fever of 101 yesterday not sure about today... he sneezes and says it feels like knives all over his body when he does... he been wheezing a little... sore throat... gassines then mild diarrhea.... now he says he stomach is upset...

I have two questions...

1. I know symptoms are not a good way of identifying hiv but, I'm really worried about him and my self. Does his symptoms sound like ARS/acute hiv illness.. I dont know the difference
2. We always use condoms but we do kiss deeply and i give him oral sex.. What is my risk of exposure if his illness is hiv related????


This discussion is related to I need help please!!!!.
