First of all, thank you for your time. I'm writing to try and get an assessment of my risk at this point in time. I'm a young male and Back in January 2008 I had unprotected, receptive anal sex with intra-rectal ejaculation. The biggest mistake of my life. Then I got into a car accident in March where I had to have emergency surgery for a broken nose. They gave me Hydros to take after my accident. I took the pills for about 3 to 5 days. I don't remember the milligrams but I know it wasn't too incredibly high. Well, 7 months after my high risk encounter I went to get tested for all STDs including HIV. All the tests came back negative, thankfully. Then, around September I started getting a sore throat, runny nose, sore muscles, and low-grade fever. This was around a time when a lot of people on our campus were getting sick. However, these symptoms brought back my anxiety about HIV. I just want to know if I should be still be worried about HIV even though I waited 7 months after my possible exposure (I don't know the status of the guy I had sex with) and the test came back negative. I want to know if the 3-5 days of prescriptions would extend my window period. I was taking the pills for the first few days of March and took the HIV test in August. Would this few day sof pills interfere with my test? Is a 7 month negative test conclusive? I read everywhere that 3 months is the window period and sometimes 6. I just want to know if I'm pretty much in the clear because I waited 7 months. I waited 7 months on purpose because I knew 6 months was the most most people say to wait. I would love to just put this behind me and say lesson learned because trust me this is lesson learned. Thank you for your time.
