Hi,
I was reading through some of the forum posts and came across something on HTLV. I had never heard of this before. Is oral sex a transmission risk? Is this something to think about at all if not an IDU. Thanks for your answers if you are familiar with this topic.

HTLV is more prevalent depending on where you live, and isn't something you need to worry about unless you live in one of those areas.
Here is a good article about it - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTLV
If you are in the US, Canada, or the UK, I wouldn't worry at all.
