What are the chances of getting HIV from oral sex.

I'm your average nineteen year-old gay boy, haven't had too many sexual partners/experiences or whatever.  When I was eighteen, I bottomed during unprotected anal sex with a person I don't know.  I've been tested for STD's four times since then, and I keep coming up clean.  I just have a question about HIV and the possibility of getting it from giving a blowjob.  Recently, I met this totally cute "straight" guy at a party.  We totally hit it off and out of nowhere, he began to makeout with me.  Long story short:  I gave him head and he came in my mouth after I told him NOT to.  I really don't think I have anything to be worried about, ya know?  But there's always that risk.  One of my friends swears that it's like very rare that someone will get HIV from giving head.  She said something along the lines of there being like five cases in the past 27 years or something.  Maybe I'm just freaking myself out, as usual.  But there's always that risk.  What are the chances of getting HIV from giving head?

Hey - you answered your own question when you said "really don't think I have anything to be worried about, ya know?  But there's always that risk"  Most non HIV guys become HIV+ when they have unprotected sex when they are intoxicated.  Think about it!
