If you believe you have been exposed to HIV and want help to judge your risk, would like advice about HIV testing, or have questions about the effectiveness of condoms or risks associated with specific sexual practices, this is the site for you.
if you haven't been tested in a while, minus the test you took on sep 10th, test again in two more months. Just for a conclusive result and peace of mind. from the incident you described you were as close to zero risk as possible. so expect another negative.

Extreme is right. Your risk was next to zero, you can proceed for you test only for own satisfaction and collect a negative report.You don't need a PCR, a simple, less costlier yet highly reliable ELISAElisa Elisa/western blot tests for hiv Lyme disease antibody would suffice. The only disadvantage of this test is, it is meaningful and conclusive only after 12 weeks.

This was good that your doctor ordered STD tests for you, since some of the curable STD's do transmit through oral route.
