Not surprised by the negative result, but congratulations.
I got blood hiv test in Public hospital.
Negative!!!
Dear Doctor,
Could you quantify in your opinion my odds I have now HIV? Is it somewhat positive I never had symptoms/fever in these months?
I made reservation for a health check up at hospital on 6 Feb. I ll take care of controlling all parameters of my blood and all possible STDs.
I hope all will be good.
Sorry if I disturbed again.
I will update here my results.
Steffen.
Thanks for the kind words. Take care and stay safe.
Maximum respect for your work and approach. Thanks.
Noted; see above. Take care and stay safe.
Welcome to the forum.
It certainly can be alarming when a friend develops HIV. But of course your friend, having sex with men, was at 100 times higher risk than you. In any case, obviously this doesn't change your risk.
You describe a low risk exposure. Your partner's reaction to the broken condom is pretty good evidence she didn't have HIV. Of course female sex workers are at much higher risk for infection from their clients than the other way around, and it sounds like your partner knows this and is careful to avoid infection. But even if she were infected, the chance of catching HIV during any single episode of vaginal sex are quite low, probaby around 1 in 1,000 or lower. Erectile drugs like Cialis don't make any difference.
Those comments answer questions 1 and 2. Should you have an HIV test? I would say yes, but not because there was any real risk, only for reassurance. Most people nervous enough to ask questions on this forum probably are more reassured by negative testing than by anything I can say. You'll probably continue to worry about it until you have been tested.
In summary, you should not be at all worried about the event 10 months ago. If you decide to be tested, you can expect a negative result.

I am sure I was HIV negative because I tested before the accident I described you.
