is below 99 faren fever is possible in ars...

i had brief encounter with a pros ...i used a condom consistently and correctly....
but in the meantime she told that ""perhaps the condom broke" suddenly i gave it a look but found no visible breakage,
then i asked her, and she said " no its not broken then she quickly made me wear another condom over the earlier one
which was not broken for sure coz there was no leakage....after ejaculation but how could i b confirm that the 1'st was also not broken....maybe she was lying,,,maybe i missed the break...apart from that vaginal sex no oral sex nothing....wat r my chances????????...  
40 hrs after that incident i got a fever at around 98--99 fahrenheight and weakness which resumed for 10 days. after that  i felt a very mild sore throat for 2 days.. just these no other symptoms...do they qualify as an ars..
my quest. might look very unimportant but i m worried to hell  plz reply...

Condoms dont just fall apart during sex. If it had you would know it.

As far as the pleasure factor, there is no one that can measure this change you speak of.

You are looking for a reason to believe there was an issue with the condom. When you pulled out you would have had to take off the condom and immediately noticed it was broken.

Please try to relax, you did not have exposure.

Hello Teak,

Just a curious question, how does a person know if a condom breaks or fails. I mean I never had that experience, but I am note clear on this point. With out visual inspection how do we know it, does the sex automatically feel more pleasurable as the condom is gone and the natural skin contact pleasure kicks in ?

Please let us know. Thank you.

If the condom had broke you would have known without a doubt. Don't ever double up on condoms, by doing so you are asking for a condom failure. You had protected sex so you were never at risk and no your fever was not high enough to be related to HIV.
