Oral Fixation

I have given lots of oral sex over the years. I have always been afraid to test for HIV because that means I would have to face the music for my actions. I have been out for 13 years, but I only engage in unprotected oral sex, I have a few regulars and some I find  on the internet from time to time (oral sex only)  Im pretty particular in what sexual behaviors I engage in, which is Only Oral sex with no ejaculate. My last test was November 2012 and I was negative, however I recently broke out with folliculitis of the face chest back and arms back in July 2013 so I went to the derm and they said I had folliculitis just as I suspected. My issue is its been 6 months since I first noticed this and Im still having this issue. Im wondering if this is a sign that I contracted an std from oral sex, or could this just be from something else. I know the obvious response would be to get tested (which I will), Im just curious what the MEDHELP says since Im sure they've come across this type of question before  and Im always reading that oral sex is safer sex.

Thank you.

No, it is not possible to penetrate someone and not know it.

Thank you, one last question, is it possible for someone to penetrate anally with out knowing? Would the very act wake someone up if they were not a heavy sleeper. I've always wondered.

HIV is not transmitted by oral sex.
