A hiv+ man sticking his tongue in anus(rectum)

Hi, respectful doctors and members. After consideration I decided to post another question which is a whole different situation I experienced about two weeks ago. I'm gay and I met a man online and went to his place with an hiv test paper. While having him tested, we made out. He french kissed, give each other unprotected oral sex in a 69 position(well, maybe it's not important). He then licked my anus and sticked his tongue quite deep in my anus. Just before I went his place, I washed my anus and accidently made a cut with the tube I used. Anyway, When we switched position, I glanced at the test paper and it had two bars. The result was positive. I was calm and quiet, went to the bathroom, washed my anus again, but no deep. After that, I had him tested with another test paper and it's positive again. The quality of the test paper is guranteed. So he's definitely hiv+.

The answers in the forum is that the saliva is not infectious. But in my case, we both brushed our teeth and had gums, will that change things? And will saliva with hiv virus affect me because it's in my rectum (unlike small cuts on hands, this is membrane) or the cut on the anus? Even if he didn't reach the rectum, when I washed my anus I might have pushed the saliva deeper...

Thank you.

So, you already had a long thread with the actual risks to getting HIV explained to you.  I"m not sure if you are not understanding the information or if your anxiety is preventing you from internalizing the actual risks. To make this thread complete, I'll say them one more time.  The ONLY risks for HIV are having unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse (only the head of your penis needs to be covered) or sharing IV drug needles.  Saliva and air inactivate the virus. What you describe is NOT a risk for HIV. This is a moderated forum and our answers are guided by doctors that specialize in HIV.  I would say that you may be suffering health anxiety.  Also, you are not a doctor so can't diagnose another person with HIV.  

So, the bottom line again is that you can not get HIV from what you describe.  NO RISK.  at all.

All you need to know about hiv prevention is in the last thread. Instructions were given so you would always be able to determine if you had a risk. Namely, reread about the 3 "then after you say "No, I didn't" you will know that it's time to move on back to your happy life."

In case it is unclear, I will answer the question for you - the answer to all of your questions is No I didn't have any risk.

Did I have unprotected anal/vaginal sex or use shared hollow needle? No, I didn't. It's just so hard to relax since I literally made out with an hiv positive man. Thank you again, AnxiousNoMore :).
You don't have any medical training so you should stop using your fears as some kind of misguided basis for doubting the scientists work. hiv science is 40 years old, so if you can't accept that science then see a therapist because your anxiety is a bit of a mental health problem.
