THANK YOU VERY MUCH DOCTOR, YOU HAVE BROUGHT ME THE PEACE OF MIND THAT I NEEDED, IT HAS BEEN HORRIBLE THIS PAST MONTH WITH MY GIRLFRIEND, SINCE WE WERE PLANING TO START A FAMILY THIS YEAR I FELT EVEN WORSE. I WILL TAKE YOUR ADVICE AND TEST NEXT MONTH, THIS HAS BEEN MY FIRST AND LAST ENCOUNTER OF SUCH NATURE. I WILL PUT IT ALL BEHIND ME WHEN I GET MY RESULT AND START MY FAMILY.

The exposures you describe are zero risk for HIV, for all practical purposes.  And your symptoms don't suggest HIV, despite what you think you have learned by searching online.  Feel free to test if you like; the test will be accurate at 2 months.  But if positive, it won't be because of this event.

thanks doctor, i would like to add one more thing, im going to get an hiv test i think next month, its gonna be 2 months since that encounter, how accurrate might that be? do u think any of that medecine the doc gave me might have caused all those symptoms i was getting, can they be connected to ars?

You had very safe sex and were not likely to acquire any STD.  You describe no symptoms that suggest STD.  (There is no STD that caues geograpic tongue, cough, dizziness, but it's possible you caught a viral respiratory infection.)  

Most important, you are under the care of a provider who has tested you appropriately and even treated you (although I'm personally doubtful you had a UTI).  Most likely your symptoms are not due to any infection at all, but they are pretty classical for anxiety and guilt over the sexual event.

Bottom line:  You're fine.  If symptoms persist, discuss them with your provider. But I doubt you have anything that will ever harm you or your girlfriend.

Good luck-- HHH, MD
