blood - fruit - anxious

[JJ197918]

Thank you for your time and for providing all the valuable information to some very

worried an anxious people, including myself. I have read the forum on food and not

getting infected, but most has to do with cooking food or blood in fluid, not blood on

food eaten within SECONDS that was not heated.

Here is the situation:

I went to a party and a friend of mine had a large open cutCuts and puncture wounds on his left handHand or foot spasms
Hand tremor about 30

minutes old (near the watch area), that was not dry, so the blood was visible, no

band-aid. At some moment, he open an orange fruit, and give me half of it (about 4

slices). I am concerned because I ate the fruit which may have had blood on it and I have

a cankerCanker sore (aphthous ulcer)
Fever blisters and canker sores
Canker sore
Canker sores sore in my mouth on the side of my cheek. Also, I have gastritis, so

inflammation in the esophagusBarrett’s esophagus
Esophageal cancer
Esophageal perforation
Esophagus and stomach anatomy
Esophagitis
Esophagus and stomach from acid refluxGastroesophageal reflux disease
Gastroesophageal reflux in infants
Hiatal hernia repair
Reflux nephropathy
Vesicoureteral reflux. Is there a risk of

transmition this way, if in fact my friend was infected and got his blood on the fruit  

and I ate it right after he handed it to me? I saw him scrating his injure. Do you think

this requires testing for HIV? Am I worrying needlessly?

Thank you.

Teak thoroughly explained why you would not be at risk. I have nothing more to add. Please take up any additional concerns with a mental health professional.

No more comments please. This thread is over.
