very scared...anxiety to much to handle.need advice.

hi guys.i had post this question on HIV prevention. had answers which i know maybe accurate. Sad to say im still very anxious about it. here is my concern. Got myself a cws, before any action, i made time to talk to her a bit. ask her stuff to assess if i will be ok with her. She told me she had a day job and being csw only when she needs money.    so after hearing that i feel she is low risk for HIV. we started protected oral with a condom she provided. then we started to have protected sex for 5 mins. after we finish, i saw the condom still covered my penis and all is well. here is whats bothering me. i ddnt get the chance to check then condom carefully for any TAMPERED HOLE that can cause leakage. now i am kicking myself with fear that   she had hiv and made a pin hole on the condom to infect other (me). i know i maybe over reacting abt this but i just cant get the thought that i have nothing worry about.            

so i made researches about hole in condom, including Dr. HHH which they say should thre be any hole or small tear, condom will totally fail during sex. if it fail u will see ur expose penis. but i knw someone who deliberately did the same thing and with different outcome. my fear is getting worst.can any one help me deal with this fear.any help would be very much appriciated.tnx

tnx for your advice.i also read that if there is a tiny hole or tear in condom, it will fail to the point ur penis is exposed.what i am afraid is some people ddnt experience the breakage despite the "puncture hole" in the condom. now i am really worried.

Condoms are designed to fail completely if there is a small hole or tear, You would have known for sure if this were to happen. You can relax

Also CSWs are using condoms to protect themselfs not you. So I can say she did nothing to tamper with the condom at all, and even if she would of you would of known at the end.
