oral sex risk

I recently had an enocunter with a man and he gave me oral sex and he is hiv positive, but he is taking medication. I want to keep seeing the man and repeating this same sexual act, but I need to know what my risks may be. He tells me I can not contract HIV this way but I just wanted to check with an expert. I would also like to know my risk from my last encounter. I was on my period, but there was only a little blood. Once again what are/were my risks from receiveing oral sex. I am not that healthy of a person, smoke, drink, use drugs (not iv) and I may currently have a kidney infection. I do not know if he had any cuts in his mouth. Thanks for the help and I would greatly appreciate it.

Ok, that helps me a little. I just want to make sure because it says on so many other websites that there is a risk. I did not notice any bleeding gums, but I wasnt really looking, if there was some small amount of blood in his mouth, maybe he has gingivitis, doesnt that put me at risk? And why isnt deep kissing a risk, other websites say deep or "french" kissing is a risk. I want to believe everybody i just see myself as someone highy suspetible and would appreciate any answers.

I just wanted to say that I think a woman who receives oral sex from a known hiv positive man is at risk. The only reason why there probably isnt that many documented cases is because most people who have hiv tell their partners and they were adivised by their doctors not to have unprotected oral sex. So if a hiv postitive man told their partner it was unsafe, instead of the other way around (the hiv negative insuring the positive it was not unsafe) most women would not let their partners perfrom unprotected oral sex. The only reason why I did that was because of this forum, so I think I am making a new case, a case that will be documented because the situation I chose is so rare. I hope I will be okay, I am praying everyday, and I hope that the people who advise others on this forum know the risk of a woman receiving oral sex from an KNOWN hiv positive man. I hope everyone is correct otherwise... I do not know. i do not want to get into it I will just continue to pray.
