sore throat..urgent help

ok this what happend. will keep it brief.

Took a CSW to the hotel. she charged less and i was glad. Protected oral for 2 mins and protected sex for 2 mins with the SAME CONDOM.

Questions

1, the condom was provided by the CSW. Its called " swing condom", cover was pink ( just incase if you guys have heard about it ) - NOT SURE WHETHER IT WAS LATEX OR LAMBSKIN. ..what should i do ? unable to find the damn brand on google. "Swing in thailand" stands for Service workers in group. Not sure if the condom was provided to the CSW by them..

2, Assuming its latex, can rigorous oral cause, abrasions on the condom and will it a problem during penetrative sex ?
I checked the condom with water after sex, no leakages. what are the chances of HIV...iam getting paranoid...as iam feeling weak, runny nose and a sore throat, malaise etc..mild fever and no diarrhea though

Help me man..iam dying of anxiety. My wife is carrying and i got carried away

I'm telling you man to man that if I was in your position I wouldn't test because I would know that I used a condom and therefore I would know I was protected.  I personally never go without a condom with anyone which is why I never worry about HIV because I know I'm protected. You have absolutely nothing to worry about. I'd bet your life on it.

I have a sore throat too because it's winter, there's dry air everywhere and I caught a cold. Why would you automatically assume your sore throat is HIv related when you had protected sex AND there are at least fifty other far more likely things causing your sore throat that are NOT HIV?

As you were advised previously, protected sex with a condom is not a risk. Condoms are what prevent HIV.

Are you sure HIV is impossible through this kind of exposure...Can you throw some light on swing condoms, since you are from Bangkok...this is will be my last post brother ? please patiently write back

Hi Tensed19,

why do these symptoms start ?

Sore throat is unbearable...some thing is wrong...wonder what to do  ?

The biggest fear is i took her from the streets of pattaya...not from any brothel....when i asked her the status, she said she hasnt checked fromt the past 5 years...

what do you suggest

oral sex and protected vaginal or anal sex is not a risky behaviour. In your scenario no testing required as you were protected
