8mth window

Is it possible to have had a brief minute of playing around the lips and putting it in for about 10 seconds a risk for HIV?

what if this happened 8 mths ago and I am just now having dry skin patches on my back that look black and all of the other symptoms from my previos message?

Am I at risk?  Would it show this late?

I have a test coming in the mail.  It should be here next week.  It is the HomeAccess.  Are they pretty accurate?

Teak knows more than I do, but 8 months is too late. However, I think half of people with HIV do not experience symptoms, or, the symptoms are so mild that they are not noticed. Symptoms, or lack thereof, mean nothing. You had unprotected sex, just go test. It was only 10 seconds so you'll be fine.

I'll hand it over to Teak or one of the other regulars.

I had sex with a girl 8 mths ago.  I could not get hard so I kept rubbing my head against her vagina.  when it started erecting, i put it in for 10 seconds then pulled out to put a condom on.  Since that incident, i did not have any unprotected sex until i received my oral job from a female.  1 1/2 months after that is when my symptoms started.  

Can I still get symptoms from the incident 8 months ago this late?

You'll have to explain yourself better.
