As per my knowledge, If your sex was protected then you need not worry about the illness. But if you are not sure about it then better get tested after 3 months.

You didn't have a risk of contracting HIV so whatever symptoms you have are not HIV related.

[shabdellah]

dear sir,

what makes you so sure that its not hiv? the swallen node is really scaring me?

thank

Because you didn't have a risk of contracting HIV and as for swollen lymph nodes have they been diagnosed by a doctor or are you selfdiagnosing yourself?

[shabdellah]

no sir swollen lymph nodes  have not been diagnosed by a Dr. but you can really feel a golf ball size bump on the back side of ny neak only on one side.

[Vance2335]

see a Dr for your symptoms, you can not get HIV from protected sex and oral sex does not transmit HIV.

[shabdellah]

yes but oral sex is 1/10000 coul;d I be that person? have anybody here seen somebody catch it from an oral exposure?

[Teak]

No because it doesn't happen and isn't a risk.

[Vance2335]

that number has never been backed up with a documented case. you had no risk.
