Kim, from what i've read here this sounds more like high-anxiety than anything else. I went through this myself and sympathize with you, but try to do your best not to go through the next 34 days scarring yourself with reads from the internet, try to do as much as you can to distract yourself from this thought pattern-i did the same thing as you and turned out to be negative after all,as i think you will as well. Try getting a legit massage, seeing a movie,spending time with some friends, ect,anything to put a break in your current train of thoughts Kim.

if you haven't done so yet...please read my hiv anxiety post...and what frank just posted on it too.

i bet every time you read about a new symptom...you get it.

my son's experience has been posted before...so i'm not going to do that again.  everyone is different and the severity or lack of ARS...will vary.  

fear is not fact!!!!!!!!!!!!

it is obvious by your posts that you are spending waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time searching the internet for symptoms.

i'm sorry that i dont know everything about your condom failure...but if you did have true failure...you need to test...plain and simple.  the odds are in your favor but nothing trumps a test.

stop looking for things...just test so that you can put this behind you.
