Am I negative

[mikemike999]

I had a risky encounter exactly 20 days ago.  I am a male and have vaginal sex.  Used a condom, not sure if it was latex, not sure if condom broke or not and came inside her.  I am really paranoid!  I had an std and blood hiv test 5 days later, everything negative.  Had an oral hiv test yesterday at the 19 day mark which came back negative.  What are the percentages that it is accurate?  I am starting to get a sore throught and a little fatigued - maybe anxiety.  Searching the internet gives conflicting ansers.  Should I do a DUO test now?  Is that more accurate?  Please help!!

Having experience doesn't necessarily mean knowing. And my opinion is the same as Vance2335's. Had the condom broken you would've noticed.  No thing such as leaking a bit in condoms.

I understand and respect everyone's opinon.  I was a bit confused and didn't know if they were responding to me or not so I hope you understand where I am coming from.  I am a bit scared from my encounter and was hoping to get some responses from anyone who had experience in my situation.  Thank you for any input.

Anyone can answer any question they want. Teak is one of the most respected posters on this board due to his knowledge and honesty.

I had the exact experiance as you 3 weeks ago. My anxiety comes and goes if I have a symptom I associate it with HIV. Like it's been 19 days and I got a sore throat but before the sore throat I was very anxious and could not sleep so maybe that's why I got it today . And I too have thought what If about the condom if it worked . But a lot of it is still anxiety and paranoia .

You know if the condom breaks it is simple as that. And you have to search for a non latex condom.

You had no risk.
